1. Notion of reactive power
Although the main purpose of this article is to provide a technical description of the power capacitors used on public and industrial alternating current networks, it seems appropriate to recall the electrotechnical phenomena that make their use indispensable. For further details, please refer to the articles referenced in
1.1 Reactive power
-
The function of a network is to transport power (or energy) from a production source to a consumption center called a load or receiver. The load is characterized by its voltage, current, impedance and power factor.
