LV Iron Core Line & Load Reactors
Line and load reactors are generally serial-connected to the input and/or output terminals of three phase equipment such as motor speed controllers, inverters and UPS systems. These equipment make use of semiconductor switches such as IGBTs, thyristors, and diodes and therefore create harmonic distortion and high switching over-voltages (dv/dt). Use of such equipment has been becoming more widespread as the technology advances. However, the negative effects of these equipment should not be overlooked.
