Automatic compensation of reactive power with a system for monitoring a 6 kV electrical power grid in a mine

Journal Title: Mining – Informatics, Automation and Electrical Engineering - Year 2015, Vol 522, Issue 2

Abstract

The paper features a concept, execution and results of a central system for automatic reactive power compensation of a 6 kV electrical power grid in a mine. The following were used as controlled compensators of reactive power: synchronous motors of driving systems working in a mine, capacitor batteries and filters of higher harmonics. Then a communication system was described. Finally, a system for monitoring the state of the mine grid was presented.
