Capacitors

Capacitors are essential electronic components that store electrical charge when connected to a power source. Once disconnected, they can release this stored energy, acting as a temporary battery for a short duration. Capacitors are widely used in various electrical applications, from household appliances to industrial systems.
In household fans, fan capacitors ensure smooth and consistent movement, even during voltage fluctuations. They help maintain stable performance and prevent damage caused by irregular power supply.
Power factor correction capacitors are used to improve the efficiency of electrical systems by enhancing the power factor between electrical equipment and the power source. These power capacitors can be installed at different points in the system to maximize their effectiveness.
Key benefits of power capacitors include:

• Maintaining voltage stability
• Preventing energy loss through heat
• Enhancing load efficiency
• Reducing excess KVA load on the power grid
• Minimizing voltage drops within buildings
• Lowering utility power factor penalty charges
• Restoring current capacity of overloaded conductors
• Reducing distribution and conductor losses
