SIVACON S8 Planning Principles – Reactive power compensation
module for electronic reactive power compensation can be
installed in the door. Tab. 7/1 summarizes the general
cubicle characteristics.
The cubicles for reactive power compensation (Fig. 7/1)
relieve transformers and cables, reduce transmission losses
and thus save energy. Dependent on the consumer struc-
ture, reactive power compensation is equipped with
non-choked or choked capacitor modules. The controller
