Safety Precautions
Since this device is not equipped with protective functions against overcurrent
CAUTION
Discharging Resistor
Discharges residual charge when
the capacitor is disconnected.
Discharges down to 50 V or less in
5 minutes.

Control Circuit
Over-voltage Relay
Provides protection against
overvoltages on capacitors
since overvoltages will
shorten capacitor lifetimes
and lead to explosion of
capacitors in extreme cases.
Power Fuse
Provides protection against
overcurrent.
Vacuum Electromagnetic Contactor
Connects or disconnects
the capacitor
Pressure Switch
Detects the expansion

Series Reactor (SR-Series Reactor)
・ Has 6 % of a capacitor
・ Impress transient phenomenon and
limits the fifth harmonic waves.
13 % series reactors are used when
voltage distortion exceeds 5.5 %.
The capacitor is protected by
tripping circuit breaker for 52C
or vacuum electromagnetic
contactor for 52C1 to 52C4 with
each protection relays and
