What are kvar ratings for capacitors?

5.2 Typical voltage and reactive power (kvar) ratings for capacitor units. A brief description of the nominal ratings (i.e. kvar, voltage, capacitance) that are typical of the low-voltage AC power capacitors of concern.

How many capacitor cells are available at 480 volts?

Unfused units available up to 100 kvar at 480 V. 480 V units above 50 kvar have 525 V capacitor cells. Ratings based on 60 Hz operation. Table 12. Replacement fuse chart Table 11. Low-voltage fixed capacitor systems with heavy-duty cells Table 11. Low-voltage fixed capacitor systems with heavy-duty cells (fuse ampere). (fuse ampere).

What is a bulged capacitor cell top?

Bulged capacitor cell top provides easy visual indication of interrupter operation Discharge resistors: Reduce residual voltage to less than 50 V within one minute of de-energization. Exceeds NEC® requirements Table 1. Capacitor cell catalog numbering system Ratings are based on 60 Hz operation. Refer to Table 3 for available kvar at rated voltage.

What are Vishay Esta LVAC MKP capacitors?

The Vishay ESTA LVAC MKP capacitors are metallized polypropylene film capacitors with self-healing properties. The current-carrying metal layer of an MKP capacitor is vaporized onto one side of the polypropylene film. The front surface of tubular winding elements are joined by means of the metal spray method (schooping).
