Title
Standard for Shunt Power Capacitors
The Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, Inc.
Publication Date:
Mar 21, 2002
Scope:
Foreword
This standard’s principal objective is to provide a basis for uniformity in design and testing of shunt power capacitors.
This standard was revised in response to a need created by the continuous changes in capacitor technology, primarily in the areas of internally fused and fuseless capacitors, and the need to move capacitor application information previously contained in this standard to IEEE Std 1036-1992, IEEE Guide for Application of Shunt Power Capacitors. It was also the aim of this revision to coordinate the information contained in this standard, whenever possible, with other pertinent national and international standards.
Scope
This standard applies to capacitors rated 216 V or higher, 2.5 kvar or more, and designed for shunt connection to alternating current transmission and distribution systems operating at a nominal frequency of 50 Hz or 60 Hz, within the guidelines of IEEE Std 1036™-19921.
Keywords:
- shunt connection
- capacitors
