Power Factor Panel Manufacturers
A Power Factor Panel is a device installed in the electrical system for the purpose of controlling and enhancing the Power Factor.
But what is a power factor? And why should it be improved?
Well, if you calculate the output power of an AC (alternating current) and DC (direct current) circuit for the same voltage and current, you could find that the power is less in AC compared to DC. Why?
Because of the POWER FACTOR.
The Power factor is the relationship between the active power and the apparent power. In layman’s terms, it is the measurement of how effectively the power is used from the total power consumed. The higher the power factor, the better the power usage is.
An ideal circuit results in a Power Factor that equals 1. But unfortunately, no electrical system in an AC circuit has a unity Power factor due to the losses.
How is Power Correction done?
As most electrical loads are inductive in nature, they tend to draw current that lags behind the supply voltage. So adding the right amount of capacitance (which is reactive with current leading the supply voltage) in parallel compensates for the inductive load and returns the power factor to almost unity. That is what a Power factor Panel does.
Did you know? Most of the State Electricity Boards insist the industries have loaded with a higher power factor (0.90 – 0.99) since it is a key in measuring the electrical consumption of a facility. They also impose a penalty in the electricity bills for the industry that uses loads/equipment with a low power factor as they draw more current for the corresponding voltage.
From the operations perspective, this low power factor drawing high current creates excessive heat in the equipment, huge voltage drops off and results in poor voltage regulation.
But you don’t have to worry anymore, because you have landed on the right page. EVR Power, the best Power Factor Panel Manufacturers of industrial power factor panels, can help you and your business by enhancing and maintaining a good power factor.

FAQ
1. What is a Power Factor Panel?
Power Factor Panel is a feature that helps in providing the appropriate amount of power that’s enough for your electrical equipment. When a device draws more than the ideal amount, then it creates extra reactive currents or over-currents. If left unattended, these can cause power supply issues within the distribution circuitry and degrade overall system performance by affecting feeding appliances as well.
2. How does a Power Factor Panel work?
Power Factor Panel has multiple-stage switching for controlling reactive load by sensing the VARs. This is a programmable controller-based system that brings in microcontrollers, finds out the reactive load and switches capacitor banks of suitable capacity automatically to maintain 0.99 lag PF.
3. What is the purpose of the APFC panel?
APFC is an automated power factor control panel that automatically adjusts the power factor of a microgrid to ensure that it runs in an optimized way. There are many industries and companies, including hospitals and manufacturing plants, which have been found to not be using energy-efficient due to lower power factors. APFC can resolve this issue by acting as a circuit breaker for these sources of electricity. It will maintain factors like current, voltage, and power within specified limits so that there’s no overload and ensures optimal performance of electrical equipment.
