Using capacitors to regulate the voltage in electrical networks
Capacitors are made within a given tolerance. The IEEE standard allows reactive power to range between 100% and 110% when applied at rated sinusoidal voltage and frequency (at 25 C case and internal temperature) (IEEE Std. 18-2002). In practice, most units are from +0.5% to +4.0%, and a given batch is normally very uniform. ...
