Benefits
By improving the power factor, you can significantly lower reactive power charges imposed by utility companies in Uganda.
Improving the power factor frees up the existing electrical infrastructure to handle more active power load.
Maintaining a higher power factor can lead to improved voltage stability throughout your electrical system.
Lower reactive current flow reduces resistive losses in cables and transformers, leading to overall energy savings.
Operating equipment at a better power factor can reduce stress on the electrical system, potentially extending the lifespan of connected equipment.
Efficient power utilization contributes to a lower carbon footprint
The intelligent controller ensures continuous and automatic power factor correction without manual intervention.
