Compensation Panel Manufacturing, Installation & Modification

Compensation panels are special panels where capacitors and measuring instruments are housed together to correct a facility's power factor. As 3 Faz Engineering, we offer a complete service from custom compensation panel manufacturing to professional installation, from updating your existing panel to periodic maintenance.

Every facility's load profile, harmonic condition and power requirements are different. For this reason, instead of standard solutions, we design and manufacture custom solutions for your installation.

The correct selection of panel components such as capacitors and shunt reactors is critically important. An incorrectly sized system can lead to both inductive and capacitive reactive penalties.

Our Scope of Services

Panel Manufacturing

Compensation panels designed according to your facility's installed capacity, load profile and harmonic condition, manufactured with quality materials.

Installation & Commissioning

Professional installation, connection and fine-tuning operations with our expert technician team. Verification of system performance after commissioning.

Modification & Upgrade

Modification and upgrade services when the existing compensation panel capacity becomes insufficient or the system changes.

Periodic Maintenance

Regular maintenance plans covering capacitor checks, contactor maintenance, measurement and adjustment operations.

Fault Detection & Repair

Detection and rapid repair of compensation system problems such as capacitor failure, contactor malfunction and relay errors.

Fine-Tuning & Optimisation

Setting the reactive power relay with the correct parameters and periodic optimisation for optimal system operation.

Types of Compensation Systems

Classic (Contactor-Based)

The most widely used type of compensation. Consists of a reactive power relay, capacitor, fuse and contactor. A cost-effective and reliable solution.

Dynamic (Thyristor-Based)

Ideal for facilities with rapidly changing loads. Switches in within milliseconds, operates silently and requires no maintenance. More expensive than classic systems.

Harmonic-Filtered

Essential for facilities with high harmonic ratios. Protects the system by preventing resonance between capacitors and inductive loads.

Importance of Correct Material Selection

Capacitors are the basic compensation elements used to correct inductive energy. If the value of capacitors (kVAR) is chosen too small, the system pays reactive penalties; if chosen too large, a capacitive charge is incurred instead.

For this reason:

  • Capacitor sizing must be calculated meticulously.
  • The harmonic condition must be analysed and a filtered system should be preferred if necessary.
  • The need for a shunt reactor must be assessed.
  • The quality of materials to be used must be long-lasting and reliable.

As 3 Faz Engineering, we work with the leading brands in the industry such as ABB, Schneider and Siemens, and install long-lasting and reliable systems.
