-- Contactor ratings recommended above are based on common ranges available in the market. Other ranges closest
to recommended ratings are acceptable. Minimum requirement is 1.5 times rated capacitor current, AC3 rating.

Assuming total capacitor output required = 250kVAr, 525V

option 1:
If a 6-step regulator is used, switching program no.2 can be selected :
Capacitor bank : 25: 25: 50: 50: 50: 50 kVAR -- 6 steps, 250 kVAr
option 2:
If a 12-step regulator is used, switching program no. 4 can be selected :
Capacitor bank : 10: 10: 20: 30: 30: 30: 30: 30: 30: 30 -- 10 steps, 250kVAr, 2 steps spare

-- Contactor ratings recommended above are based on common ranges available in the market. Other ranges closest
to recommended ratings are acceptable. Minimum requirement is 1.5 times rated capacitor current, AC3 rating.
363.54

12-step type

Typical example for configuration of capacitor steps using above swicthing programs

REMARK
-- If above rating does not match to normal MCCB rating, select a type with rating slightly higher than the above.
