POWER FACTOR CORRECTION ENERY

Power factor correction (PFC) is a newer technology used in computer power supplies. PFC is applied to the circuits that include induction motors as a means of reducing the inductive component of the current and thereby reduce the losses in the supply. PFC has no effect on the operation of the motor itself.

Power factor is the ratio between KW and the KVA drawn by and electrical load where the KW is the actual load power and the KVA is the apparent load power. Simply it is measure of how efficiently the load current is being converted into useful work output and more particularly is a good indicator of the effect of the load current on the efficiency of the supply system.

Before offering a solution to our customers, AAT takes the necessary electricalmeasurementsofyournetwork.Thisallowsustobetterunderstand your power consumption and power factor constraints and ensures that our offer is based on sound and accurate information. We also consider physical constraints when submitting aproposal.
