SVC Shunt Reactors
SVC shunt reactors are 230 V single-phase reactors connected to the output of the inductive load driver that draw inductive reactive power in the proportion the driver sets. With unbalanced or rapidly changing capacitive loads, one reactor is connected to each phase, and the driver switches these reactors in steplessly to balance the phases separately. In this group, Entes single-phase 230 V 50 Hz reactors are listed in ratings of 1.66 kVAr, 3.33 kVAr, 6.67 kVAr and 10 kVAr. Choose the reactor power by the driver's per-phase driving capacity and the per-phase capacitive reactive power measured; keep in mind that a three-phase system requires three reactors. The 400 V three-phase shunt reactors that are stepped by contactors are in a separate category and are not a substitute for the single-phase reactor driven per phase.

How to choose SVC Shunt Reactors
SVC shunt reactors are 230 V single-phase reactors connected to the output of the inductive load driver that draw inductive reactive power in the proportion the driver sets. With unbalanced or rapidly changing capacitive loads, one reactor is connected to each phase, and the driver switches these reactors in steplessly to balance the phases separately.
- Take reactive power demand and harmonic distortion levels from site measurements or project calculations.
- Compare kVAr step sizes, rated voltage and step count against the compensation panel layout.
- Select capacitor duty contactors, harmonic filter reactors and discharge resistors together with the capacitor bank.
Frequently asked questions
What is SVC Shunt Reactors and where is it used?
SVC shunt reactors are 230 V single-phase reactors connected to the output of the inductive load driver that draw inductive reactive power in the proportion the driver sets. With unbalanced or rapidly changing capacitive loads, one reactor is connected to each phase, and the driver switches these reactors in steplessly to balance the phases separately.
What should I compare when choosing SVC Shunt Reactors?
Choose the reactor power by the driver's per-phase driving capacity and the per-phase capacitive reactive power measured; keep in mind that a three-phase system requires three reactors.
Where can I find technical details for SVC Shunt Reactors products?
