GRIDCON® Power Factor Correction
With passive systems, actively reduce electricity costs
GRIDCON® Power Factor Correction systems are mainly used to compensate electrical motors that are connected directly to the mains rather than via a frequency converter. Such motors or other consumers with a low power factor cosφ place strain on the grid by drawing reactive power in addition to their active power consumption. Local supply of this reactive power by means of compensation systems relieves the burden on the supply grid and reduces losses.
