RC FILTER BANKS

(DAMPING CIRCUIT)

Transient Damping and Transformer Protection for MV Shunt Reactor Switching

RC filter bank systems are high-voltage transient damping solutions designed to suppress chopping currents and transient overvoltages that occur when high-power shunt reactors are switched in or out.
 

By absorbing the high-frequency oscillations that can result from MV reactor switching, Enersolix RC filter systems

  • protect the network,

  • and isolate transformer tertiary windings from sudden voltage stress.
     

What Does It Do?

  • Damps chopping currents during MV shunt reactor switching

  • Suppresses insulation stress caused by transient overvoltages

  • Protects the tertiary windings of large transformers from high-frequency stress

  • Extends the dielectric life of system equipment

  • Prevents arcing and resonance effects during switching
     

Technical Specifications (General):

  • Voltage level: 6.3 kV – 36 kV

  • RC values: resistor and capacitor combinations calculated for each application

  • Installation: inside metal-enclosed panels or open installation

  • Cooling: Natural air

  • Protection: Fuse-protected design

  • Standards: IEC 60071-1, IEEE C57.16, IEC 62271-110; designed to site transient analysis
     

Applications:

  • Systems with MV shunt reactor switching

  • Tertiary winding protection in MV substations

  • Transient suppression in MV power plants

  • Voltage regulation and balancing systems

  • Metal-enclosed MV switchgear systems
     

Why Enersolix RC Filter Systems?

  • Damps transients quickly and in a controlled way

  • Prevents the stress that chopping currents put on transformers

  • Application-based engineering ensures full system compatibility

  • Maintenance-free, long-life and safe design

  • Works together with MV shunt reactor compensation solutions
     

By neutralising high-frequency transients in your MV systems, Enersolix RC filter solutions extend equipment life and minimise the risk of failure.
