What is Automatic Power Factor Controller?

Power factor controllers helps to supervise the reactive power of a plant and prevent overloads. Automatic power factor controllers (APFCs) are completely automated in function and can easily accomplish preferred power factor under unstable load situations. These APFCs enable to lower the power consumption owing to the presence of non-linear loads such as motors, transformers, and other machines in various sectors. APFC) is primarily used for centralized power compensation at the point of electrical power distribution.

Covid-19 Impact Analysis

The outbreak of COVID-19 negatively affected the automatic power factor controller industry. The shutdown of manufacturing activities along with ban on travel & transportation ban across the globe, the demand for APFC was affected. Most automakers and other manufacturing sectors had to halt operations or are working at a limited capacity, thus led to a reduction in demand for APFC.
