Reactors for Shunt and Facts Applications

Coil Innovation’s shunt reactors are used to compensate capacitive reactive power generated by lightly loaded transmission lines or underground cables. They can be connected to the transformer tertiary winding or directly to the high-voltage (HV) bus or transmission line with system voltages up to 500kV. Flexible alternating current transmission systems (FACTS) application includes several types of reactors thyristor-controlled shunt reactors (TCR), thyristor-switched reactors (TSR), thyristor-switched capacitor reactors (TSC), thyristor-controlled series capacitor reactors (TCSC), and mechanically switched shunt reactors (MSR).
