PowerIT High Voltage Power Capacitor CHD
Split Phase
Economical Alternative To Two Single-phase Capacitors
General                                                                   Operating Conditions
The ABB split-phase capacitor unit type CHD combines two                  Temperature range                              -10/+50oC
capacitors in a single housing. The split-phase capacitor units           Location                                       Outdoor or indoor
provide an economical double star (Y-Y) unbalance detection               Altitude                                       ≤ 1000m above sea level
scheme using only three units, compared with conventional
designs using six units. This is particularly advantageous in low         Capacitor Container
power capacitor banks in Fixed, Enclosed and Pole Mount
capacitor applications. The capacitor unit has three bushings             Material                          Stainless steel, 304 high-grade
consisting of one common terminal and two capacitor output                Colour                            Storm grey N42 (AS 2700)

The split-phase capacitor can be used in applications as an
economic alternative. Three units can be used in a two-stage              Terminations
switched system, providing an economical and space saving
alternative to utilizing six conventional capacitors. Alternatively, it   Bushings                          Grey porcelain, three

The split-phase capacitors are supplied unfused as standard.
Internally fused designs are available upon request.                      Dimensions and Data (typical)
The split-phase capacitor has two sections with a common                              Unit rating > 3.3kV                                    Unit rating ≤ 3.3kV
terminal. Each section is sized evenly as standard, however they
can be sized unevenly upon request.
