Abstract

In this study, reactive power demand of the load or the load groups has been provided with a synchronous motor through a web interface as user controlled. For the realization of reactive power compensation and monitoring the system via Internet, a data acquisition card (DAQ) has been used which has superior properties compared to other controllers such as PLC and PIC. In this study, adding inductive and resistive load to the network, three-phase voltage and three-phase current values are taken from the network and the power factor value of the system can be monitored via a visual web interface. Active, reactive and apparent power value can be observed in real time via the interface. A new approach for computer-controlled and monitored reactive power compensation systems through the internet that is uncommon in the literature is presented with this experimental system.
