Just like capacitor banks are to provide reactive power to the grid to fix the power factor, what excatly is the purpose of reactor?






RE: What is the purpose of the reactor in a electrical grid?
Current limiting reactors and neutral grounding reactors to limit the fault current
Shunt reactors to compensate for line capacitances
Filter reactor are used in filters systems to filter our harmonics
In-rush reactors are used in capacitor banks to limit the in-rush current
Smoothing reactors are used in DC systems to smooth the DC wave form
