Power factor correction uses parallel connected capacitors to oppose the effects of inductive elements and reduce the phase shift between the voltage and current. Power factor correction is a ...

Utility power plant generators are usually designed for a power factor (PF) of .8 to .9. If demand-side PF is lower than the designed PF, the generator current will rise above the equipment's rated ...

The world is moving toward greater use of power factor correction (PFC). Wild, Charles, Precision, Inc. - Excessive use of electricity and poor efficiencies are no longer acceptable. Eliminating poor ...

So-called “Power Saver Devices” (known by different names) are nothing but Power Factor Correction (PFC) devices that would connect to the mains and improve power factor measured by your electricity ...

Bel Fuse has expanded its Titanium Efficiency CRPS portfolio with the introduction of the TEC2700 and TEC3200 front-end AC-DC ...

High-brightness LEDs are an inexpensive, robust, and green replacement for halogen light bulbs. This Idea for Design shows you how to apply an AC LED driver to convert the usual 12 or 24 V AC ...
