Project Description

Textile & Spinning Mill

TYPE OF INDUSTRY – Textile & Spinning Mill, Punjab India

YEAR OF IMPLEMENTATION – 2017

PROBLEMS

  • Low power factor
  • High KVAH consumption
  • Leading Power Factor ( High Rkvah lead )
  • Frequent Electrical breakdowns.
  • Frequent failure of existing capacitor banks.
  • High Monthly Electricity Bills .

OBSERVATIONS

After conducting Power Quality Audit in the plant, following observations are made:

  • Power factor is 0.92 with Existing Fixed Capacitor Banks.

  • Leading Power Factor which cause high Rkvah lead.

  • Space inside Plant is not available to install Capacitor Banks.

SOLUTION

High Voltage Automatic Controlled Harmonic Filter Banks at 11 KV Main Bus in Open Switch yard.

Project Implementation

Design, Manufacturing & Installation of Outdoor type Pole Mounted Automatic Controlled Passive Harmonic Filter Banks 6100 kvar , 14 KV , 3phase with Vacuum Contactors for Group Compensation.

RESULT

  • PF improvement > 998.
  • More than 7 % Saving in KVAH Consumption.
  • Rkvah lead controlled to negligible value.
  • Reduction in Electrical Breakdowns.
  • Comply with Tariff of PSEB.
  • Pay back in less than 6 months.
