Power factor correction uses parallel connected capacitors to oppose the effects of inductive elements and reduce the phase shift between the voltage and current. Power factor correction is a ...

Utility power plant generators are usually designed for a power factor (PF) of .8 to .9. If demand-side PF is lower than the designed PF, the generator current will rise above the equipment's rated ...

The course consists of three weeks of materials and is focused on modeling and control of grid-tied power electronics. Upon completion of the course, you will be able to understand, analyze, model, ...

SolaHD has expanded its industry standard SDN-C power supplies family with the SDN 40-24-100C, a 40A single-phase model that positions the SDN-C Series as one of the broadest available today, now ...

The need for the current waveform to track the voltage on a three-phase power system leads to a second set of requirements, in addition to those for a single-phase power factor correction (PFC) system ...

High-brightness LEDs are an inexpensive, robust, and green replacement for halogen light bulbs. This Idea for Design shows you how to apply an AC LED driver to convert the usual 12 or 24 V AC ...
