Abstract :
Controlled switching is used for elimination of
harmful electrical transients upon planned switching of
mainly Capacitor Banks, Shunt reactors and Power
Transformers. The control switching of Capacitor Bank
using Controlled Switching Device (CSD) product has
been used in order to reduce the inrush current when
closing the circuit breaker. With the approach presented
in this paper, power systems are capable of Switching on
and off Capacitor Banks as needed. The basic aim is to
control closing to minimize the energizing transients
(voltage transients as well as inrush currents), to improve
interrupting performance and controlled opening can also
be utilized.
Keywords :
CSD, Optimum switching time, Controlled switching of Capacitor Banks, Rate of decrease of Dielectric Strength (RDDS), Switching Transients, Power quality, Closing operation, Opening Operation
