Capacitors

ABB capacitors provide power suppliers and power

purchasers with a simple and economical means for:
 increasing system capacity
 maintaining system voltage
 providing var support
 reducing system power losses
 correcting load power factor
 avoiding power factor penalties
 enhancing power quality

ABB offers high-voltage capacitors for power systems

rated 2.4 kV to 765 kV. All capacitors are manufactured
to the international quality standard of ISO 9001 and
14001 covering environmental, development, repair,
and product design.
