Relay protection of capacitor banks

Abstract

The thesis presents the designs of the most commonly used compensation devices in medium-voltage networks. An analysis of voltage-current conditions during interruptions and short circuits in compensation devices, which cause their asymmetry, was carried out. In this way, the values ​​of indicative quantities for setting numerical protection were determined. For a specific example of a compensation device installed in a 10(20) kV plant, a relay protection system is presented.
