About This Product
An inductor bank creates the lagging power factor found in real motor and transformer loads. Students use it to test alternator voltage regulation and transformer loading, and to try out reactive power compensation by pairing it with a capacitor bank. Laboratories and colleges in Uruguay, Honduras, Burkina Faso, Kazakhstan and Poland can buy the Loading Inductor 1.2KVAR Bank through an export order.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can each phase of the Loading Inductor 1.2 kVAR Bank be switched separately?
Yes. It has three-phase independent switching, with load steps selected by toggle switches.
