ELECTRICAL, TRANSMISSION/SUBSTATION/DISTRIBUTION SHUNT CAPACITOR SWITCHING AND CONTROL SYSTEM WITH INTEGRATED, AUTOMATICALLY RESETTABLE, OVERCURRENT PROTECTION

摘要

A capacitor switch and control system for high-power transmission/distribution lines comprising a branch circuit comprising a capacitor (12), a capacitor switch (30), a capacitor control (28), and a sensor (24), where the capacitor control is operative to control the opening of the capacitor switch upon the sensor sensing at least one of an overload condition and a fault condition, and control the closing of the capacitor switch.
