Question
At a 12.47 kV (line to line) distribution system the
communication interference (CI) was observed due to 5% of 5th
harmonic currents generated by a 3000 kVA arc furnace. In order
to avoid CI it is required to convert an existing 600 KVAR
capacitor to 5th harmonic filter considering the total kVAr should
not exceed 135%. Calculate the following:
(i) Capacitor reactance
(ii) Reactance of the series reactor
(iii) Fundamental frequency current
(iv) 5th harmonic frequency current
(v) Tuned frequency voltage
(vi) Total rms current
(vii) Fundamental frequency voltage
(viii) Voltage (rms) across the capacitor bank
(ix) Check whether the filter kVAr rating is within limit?
(x) Comment how the existing capacitor bank is converted
to filter
