Surge Absorbing Capacitors

Surge Absorbing Capacitor

Surge capacitor is developed to connect between line and ground, and to absorb and reduce surge voltages which may be generated from breaker turns on or off and lighting surge which may be delivered by connecting transmission line and ground. To protect transformers and rotating machines, etc.

Grounding capacitors

It is developed to connect between the secondary side power lines of transformer and ground to compensate the capacitance between line and ground. It can supply required current to active ground relay or leakage breaker even if a fault occurred on load side.
