1. SCOPE
This document is a guide for the application of distribution capacitor banks. It will provide
general information, application philosophy, and simple calculations. The document is
written to provide a starting point for the less experienced engineer and a review for the
more experienced engineer. IEEE 1036 (Guide for the Application of Shunt Power
Capacitors) can be referenced to investigate more complex issues.
2. PREFACE
Applying capacitors is an art as well as a science. This guideline hopes to emphasize the
science and minimize the art, but does not attempt to create a rigid process.
Engineering judgment is necessary.
3. PURPOSE OF CAPACITORS
The three main reasons to apply capacitors are to:
1)
Reduce losses.
2)
Improve voltage.
3)
Release capacity.
4. GOALS
The Alliant Energy distribution system should be designed with the following goals:
1) Obtain a power factor of 98 percent (lag) at maximum load on the individual
feeders, or substation distribution bus, as appropriate and cost justified.
2) Limit the power factor to 95 percent power factor (lead) at minimum load on the
substation bus.
3) Limit voltage flicker for switched capacitors to 1.0% per stage at the substation bus
and 2% per stage at line locations.
4) Apply capacitors at minimum cost.
5. APPLICATION METHODOLOGY
Many years ago when system power factors near unity were not emphasized, a simple
2/3 rule " was often applied when placing capacitors on the distribution system. For a
circuit uniformly loaded, a single fixed capacitor bank would be placed 2/3 the total
distance from the substation and sized at 2/3 the maximum kVAR load.
"
System power factor near unity is desired today, and the sizing, placement, and control of
capacitors are somewhat more complicated. Fortunately, more tools are available,
including circuit metering, device communication, and computer models. The more the
engineer knows about a circuit, and its reactive flow, the more effective capacitor
application can be.

Costs are shown only to emphasize fiscal consideration when applying capacitors. $1 0/kVAR is rough estimate
for 600kVAR switched banks (installed and loaded). Fixed banks are cheaper per kVAR, as are larger size
switched banks.

7 . CAPACITOR PLACEMENT
Capacitor locations would ideally be designed for a feeder with no existing banks. Such
opportunities are rare. Moving capacitor banks each time a feeder is studied is impractical.
Capacitors should be moved when needed for system performance or as cost justified by
loss savings.
In general, capacitors should be placed at and beyond the feeder ' s var midpoint. This
design will go slightly beyond optimum losses in order to optimize voltage.
To design for 0.98 pf on a feeder with distributed load, a fixed capacitor should be applied
near the 50% mark, and then switched capacitors applied near the 80% mark.
To upgrade from 0.98 to 1.00 pf on a feeder with distributed load, a switched capacitor
should also be applied near the 20% mark.
Example
Urban feeder: Uniform load distribution, 4000 kW Load, PF = 0.89
Two capacitors: One 600 kVAR fixed One 600 kVAR switched.
Apply 600 kVAR fixed at midpoint.
Apply 600 kVAR switched at 80% of distance from sub to end-of-line.
Check to insure voltage flicker is acceptable.
To reach 1.0 pf, also apply 900 kVAR switched at 20% of feeder length.
If the load is not uniformly distributed, place the fixed capacitor at the var flow midpoint
instead of the distance midpoint, and proceed from there.
For feeders with large spot loads, expect to place a capacitor very near the spot load.
It is difficult to apply the above approach to feeders with a main line that " branches, "
especially when each branch has significant load. Using SynerGEE will help evaluate
alternatives for such cases.
8. CAPACITOR CONTROL
Switched capacitors should turn on and off automatically as the feeder ' s reactive load
varies. Load variation can be due to time of day, temperature, or customer process.
Controls are available to switch by time, temperature, voltage, var flow, or combinations
thereof. Today ' s electronic controls also have temperature and/or voltage override
capabilities, and seasonal definitions as well. The engineer should choose the appropriate
controls to effectively offset the feeder ' s var flow.
Timeclock controls are useful where the reactive load rises and falls on a regular, daily
basis. This could be almost any feeder except industrial feeders with steady 24-hour
operations.
Temperature controls are useful to offset the increased var load due to air conditioning.
They are typically applied on residential and commercial feeders.

Var controls are useful in substations, near large spot loads, such as large factories or
small towns, and near substations where unity power factor is needed. Var controls
should not be used near the end of the line.
Voltage controls are useful near the end of rural feeders where the voltage drops
significantly as the load increases.
Temperature override is useful for transmission support during summer heat.
Voltage override is useful for contingencies.
Typical locations of capacitor controls are:

Rural:
Spot Load:
Unity PF:
subst ------ VAR --------------FIX ------------- TIME or VOLT ------------------ end
9. VOLTAGE FLICKER
Voltage flicker should be considered when applying switched capacitors. The RMS
voltage change due to a capacitor turning on or off should be limited to 0.02 per unit at
the capacitor, or 0.01 per unit at the substation bus.
(0.02 per unit is 2.4 volts on a 120 volt base)
If the available fault current is known, a formula to calculate voltage flicker is:
The per unit change in voltage equals 1ph kVAR / L-G kV / L-G fault amps.
Example #1
600 kVAR cap bank on 12.47 kV system where fault current is 2000 amps.
Change in Voltage = 200 / 7.2 / 2000 = 0.0139 pu.
This location is acceptable.
Example #2
600 kVAR cap bank on 12.47 kV system where fault current is 1200 amps.
Change in Voltage = 200 / 7.2 / 1200 = 0.0231 pu.
This location is not acceptable.
Another formula to determine the voltage change is:
Per unit change in voltage = (kVAR) (z) / (1000) (kV) (kV) where
kVAR = 1-phase kVAR , kV = line-to-ground voltage, and
z = total line impedance in ohms (from cap location back to source).

CAPACITOR INFORMATION
Since capacitor banks provide a low impedance path to ground for harmonics, harmonic
currents on the power system between a harmonic source and a capacitor are typically
higher than on other portions of the line. Telephone influence is typically more prevalent
between the customer producing the harmonics and an energized capacitor. The influence
will typically drop off just past an energized capacitor bank. While a capacitor bank will
increase the harmonic flow between a harmonic source and itself, it will typically decrease
the harmonic flow and consequently telephone influence on the rest of the line.
The level of telephone influence is affected by the electrical characteristics of the
telephone system. For example, the longer the parallel path with the power conductors the
greater the influence. The balance of each telephone circuit pair has a great affect on the
level of ac influence on that pair. A perfectly balanced pair will not be influenced by the
power circuits. As the pair ' s conductor insulation ages, the pair becomes less balanced
and consequently more susceptible to ac influence.
During a telephone interference investigation, Alliant should check phase balance, neutral
integrity and system grounding and correct as needed. We typically turn capacitor banks
off and on to facilitate telephone company testing.
During an investigation, turning off the capacitor bank may alleviate the interference. If so,
the telephone company may be willing to pay to re-size or relocate the capacitor bank.
More commonly the telephone company will install inductors and/or isolation transformers
on their lines to correct their service problem.
18. FAULT CURRENT WITHSTAND
Capacitors purchased under Alliant ' s present specifications are designed not to rupture
even in locations up to 10,000 amps fault current, if protected by the proper expulsion
fuse. If available fault current is above 10,000 amps, then current-limiting fuses need to be
installed.
19. FUSING
Fusing for distribution capacitor banks can be found in the Alliant Electrical
Construction Standards.
20. ENERGIZATION OF BACK-TO-BACK CAPACITOR BANKS
When a capacitor bank is energized in close proximity to a previously energized capacitor
bank, a high-frequency inrush current flows into the capacitor bank. The inductance
between the capacitor banks limits the inrush current. The magnitude and frequency of
this inrush current is, much higher than the inrush to a single isolated capacitor bank,
which has a much longer system impedance to limit the inrush.
For distribution systems, about 200 feet between overhead capacitor banks is usually an
adequate separation distance to limit the inrush current to an acceptable level.
Configurations where the capacitor banks are very close together may require inrush
current limiting reactors.

This high-frequency inrush may exceed the transient frequency momentary capability of
the switching device as well as the I2t withstand of the capacitor fuses. It may also cause
false operations of protective relays and excessive voltages for current
transformers in the neutral or phase of grounded-wye capacitor banks.
The circuit shown in Figure 1 typifies back-to-back switching. The magnitude and
frequency of the inrush current must be limited to ensure the proper operation of
the switching device as well as relays, fuses, etc. Where inrush currents are
excessive, one or a combination of the following steps is taken:
Use current limiting reactors to decrease the peak current and frequency of the
oscillatory inrush transients.
Use switching devices with pre-insertion resistors. These resistors are
designed to over-damp the circuit, preventing oscillations and allowing the
capacitor to become essentially charged to line potential before the main
contacts of the switch close.
Use switching devices with pre-insertion inductors. These inductors provide
large impedance between the capacitor banks to limit the inrush current. High
resistance pre-insertion inductors will further limit inrush current through
damping as in the case of pre-insertion resistors.
Switch the capacitor in smaller MVAR increments.
Control the switching device to close on zero voltage difference across the
switch.
To control the substation ground mat transients due to the high-frequency
inrush currents, where two or more grounded wye capacitor banks are at the
same location, the capacitor bank neutrals may be directly connected, with a
single connection to ground.
Where there are multiple banks using inductors, the inductors need to be on all
but one bank.

The meter socket (to which the control is mounted) should be attached to the pole with lag
screws. A #4 copper jumper should be connected from the back of the meter socket to the pole
ground using a compression lug. The capacitor control should be mounted on the opposite side
of the pole as the capacitor bank. This will prevent operating personnel from being directly
under the capacitor cans in the event the cans rupture and spill oil. The meter socket / control
should be mounted 5 feet off the ground (See figure A).

A substation transformer loaded to 100% of its open-air kVA rating with 98%
lagging power on the low voltage side produces a 96.5% lagging power
factor on the high voltage side (because of transformer inductance). To
obtain 98% PF on the high side of the transformer requires 99.2% on the
low side.
The following capacitance is needed to raise the transformer high-side
power factor to that of its low-side power factor:
35 kVAR / MW when loaded at 50% of OA rating
70 kVAR / MW when loaded at 100% of OA rating
90 kVAR / MW when loaded at 125% of OA rating
115 kVAR / MW when loaded at 167% of OA rating

PROTECTION
The protection of transmission capacitor banks may include fusing, unbalance
relaying, overcurrent relaying, surge arresters, or voltage relays. T&S Department
along with the System Protection Department will select the appropriate method.
Blown fuses or bulging cans should be reported immediately.
7.
FUSING
Externally fused (Alliant Energy standard for 69 kV and below)
Unfused (Alliant Energy standard for 138 & 161 kV)
8.
HARMONICS
Capacitors do not generate harmonics but can influence the magnitude of harmonic
voltages and currents. There are numerous operating and application issues to be
considered during the design process. These are discussed in IEEE 1036.
