PLC, PAC and Dedicated Controllers
Power factor is a measure of how effectively electrical power is used in a system. A low power factor leads to energy losses, higher utility charges, and reduced equipment efficiency. Improving it helps optimise energy usage, reduce costs, and minimise stress on the electrical network. PLC (Programmable Logic Controller) systems play a key role in monitoring and correcting power factor in real time. They automate the switching of capacitor banks, adjust loads, and maintain system balance efficiently.
Key benefits include:
- Lower electricity bills
- Reduced downtime and equipment wear
- Greater operational efficiency
- Enhanced power quality
