Power Factor Correction using PLC

Power factor correction are a technique for transforming the negative outcome of power-driven loads that result in unity power factor. Because of the dynamic load, the MCB manufacturing plant needs to adjust the power factor and have automatic switching capability. An electrical energy conduction utility may also be utilized to rectify the power factor become able to increase the power system’s efficiency. The energy meter, which is now connected in line with the source link, continuously monitors the power factoring process of the source connection. To adjust the power factor deviation, a modification to the capacitor bank is necessary. The PLC initiates the individual capacity capacitor bank, automatically aligning the capacitor bank with the load capacity and bringing the power factor close to unity without requiring human involvement.
