Abstract

Abstract In today’s growing world, the use of electrical supplies increase day by day. When compared to generation of electrical supply and demand of electrical supply is not equal In other words, generation is less than demand. In this situation as world is having less sources of generation, this will create electrical crises. So, to meet the demand requirements is only possible way of saving electrical energy or it may also mean that reducing the losses of energy. Concerning about the losses of energy some major aspect is Power Quality, Iron losses, Copper losses, Transmission and Distribution losses etc.. In this paper we consider improving power quality in terms of power factor and harmonics by using static VAR compensator with metalized film capacitor. Also, in this paper, we are assessing the performance of MPP Capacitor in static VAR compensator at foundry. Key Words: SVC, Power Factor, Harmonics, Metallized film type Capacitor (MPP)
