How to Calculate AHF and SVG Capacity: A Complete Guide by CoEpower

In today’s power-intensive industries, ensuring stable and efficient electrical systems is critical. Von Produktionsanlagen bis hin zu Rechenzentren, poor power quality—caused by harmonics and low power factor—can lead to equipment failures, energy losses, and costly downtime.

Bei CoEpower, we specialize in delivering advanced power quality solutions, einschließlich Aktive harmonische Filter (Ahf) Und Statische Var-Generatoren (Svg). One of the most common questions our clients ask is:

 “How do we correctly size AHF and SVG for our system?”

This guide provides a practical, engineer-backed approach—combined with real-world experience from CoEpower projects—to help you make the right decision.

Aktiver harmonischer Filter und statischer Var-Generator

Why Accurate Capacity Sizing Is Critical

Improper sizing is one of the most common mistakes in power quality projects.

Undersized System

  • Incomplete harmonic filtering
  • Power factor remains low
  • Equipment overheating risks

Oversized System

  • Higher upfront investment
  • Lower ROI
  • Inefficient system utilization

Bei CoEpower, we always emphasize precision + flexibility, ensuring each solution is both technically effective and cost-efficient.

AHF Capacity Calculation (Harmonische Filterung)

What Does AHF Do?

Ein aktiver harmonischer Filter (Ahf) dynamically eliminates harmonic currents generated by nonlinear loads such as:

  • VFDs
  • UPS -Systeme
  • Gleichrichter

Step-by-Step Calculation Method

1. Measure Load Current (ICH)

Use a power quality analyzer to obtain accurate real-time data.

2. THDi messen (Gesamtharmonische Verzerrung)

This indicates how severe the harmonic pollution is.

3. Calculate Harmonic Current

Ih = I × THDi

Beispiel:

  • Load current = 100 A
  • THDi = 30%

Harmonic current = 30 A

4. Define Compensation Target

Industry standard:

80%–95% harmonic mitigation

Required AHF = 30 A × 90% = 27 A

5. Add Engineering Margin

Bei CoEpower, we recommend:

+10% Zu 20% margin

Final selection:

30–35 A AHF

CoEpower Insight

Our modular AHF solutions allow:

  • Parallel expansion
  • Dynamic response < 5 MS
  • Einhaltung von IEEE 519

This ensures long-term scalability without oversizing at the initial stage.

SVG Capacity Calculation (Reaktive Leistungskompensation)

What Does SVG Do?

Ein statischer VAR -Generator (Svg) improves power factor by dynamically compensating reactive power.

Step-by-Step Calculation

1. Determine Active Power (P)

Beispiel:

P = 100 kW

2. Identify Current Power Factor

Beispiel:

PF = 0.75

3. Set Target Power Factor

Typical goal:

PF ≥ 0.95

4. Apply Formula

Q = P × (tanφ₁ − tanφ₂)

Example Result

From PF 0.75 → 0.95

Required SVG ≈ 50–60 kVar

5. Add Margin

Final SVG:

60–70 kVar

CoEpower Engineering Advantage

CoEpower SVG systems offer:

  • Schnelle Reaktion (<10 MS)
  • Continuous reactive compensation
