Description

Capacitors are electronic components used to store and release electrical energy. Specifically, shunt capacitors are used in electrical systems to improve power factor and reduce reactive power inductive loads. "KVAR" stands for kilovolt-ampere reactive, which is a unit of measurement for reactive power in electrical systems. A 15 KVAR (kilo-volt-ampere reactive) shunt capacitor likely refers to a capacitor with a capacity of 15,000 volt-ampere reactive.

Shunt capacitors are typically used to counteract the effects of inductive loads in electrical systems. These loads create a lag in the power factor, which can lead to inefficiencies in the system. By adding shunt capacitors, the reactive power is compensated for, and the power factor is improved, resulting in a more efficient and cost-effective electrical system.

Capco is a company that manufactures capacitors, and they may offer a range of capacitors, including 15 KVAR shunt capacitors, for use in various electrical applications. If you have specific questions about a Capco capacitor or need more detailed information, you should refer to their product documentation or contact their customer support for assistance.
