In view of penalties raised by the state electricity boards for low power factor and a constant rise in power tariff, it is imperative for the business-oriented establishments to install the apt system to avoid penalties and saving energy cost.

Existing electrical networks tend to fluctuate under heavy load and vary the power factor that causes huge penalties.

To save against power penalties, it is important for the establishment to install an ideal APFC System
