ABSTRACT:
A discrete-time, closed loop power factor corrector system controls the coupling of a delta-connected switched capacitor array to a 3- or 4-wire power line which may have time-varying, unbalanced, inductive loads. For inductive loads that cannot be exactly compensated with a delta-connected capacitance, the corrector system minimizes the total RMS reactive current drawn from the power line.
