Phase Connection

3YN - Three-phase star connection with accessible neutral for separate-phase compensation

Description

Separate-phase reactive compensation

BSMJ 3YN rectangular shunt capacitors provide an accessible neutral point so the A, B and C phase sections can be switched independently. This arrangement supports reactive power compensation for unbalanced three-phase loads. The schedules below list total capacitor output and capacitance, with phase-to-neutral voltage ratings of 230V or 250V.

Neutral-point connection

The internal star arrangement brings out A, B, C and N. Total capacitance CΣ is the sum of the three phase capacitances. Choose the capacitor's phase-to-neutral rating for the actual network voltage and the individual-phase switching equipment. The connection illustration identifies 230/250V phase-to-neutral and 400/450V line-voltage classes.
