HISTORY OF HAL
The beginning of HAL can be traced to the year 1940
when a far sighted industrialist, the late Seth
Watchband Harahan, set up a company called
Hindustan Aircraft Limited at Bangalore with the
object of establishing an aviation industry that can
manufacture, assemble and overhaul aircraft. Initially
aircraft like Curtiss Hawk, Vulture Bomber and
Harlow Trainer was taken up for manufacture and
overhaul in collaboration with Inter Continental
Aircraft Company of the USA.

POWER DISTRIBUTIONN
IN HAL
The 132 KV power from OSEB(Odisha State
Electrocity Board) is received at HAL 132KV
double circuit transmission line.
The 132 KV power received is stepped down to
11KV by numbers of 25MVA , 132/11KV
transformer. The 11KV supply from the
transformer is fed through 11 KV bus ducts to 25
panel board located in the control room. The
11KV supply is fed to various substations located
in each hanger by through XLPE cables.
All the equipments in the substation like
VCB,LT,ACB/MCCB along with the equipment in
132KV substation will be controlled from the
CENTRAL CONTROL PANEL(CCP) located in
the control room.
The various substation are connected in the ring
main such that any two substation are
interconnected through ring network.
Ring networks in HAL:
i)Substation 1 interconnected to Substation-5
ii)Subsation -2 interconnected to substation-8
iii)Substation-3 interconnected to Substation -4
iv)Substation-6 interconnected to Substation-7

POWER FACTOR
CORRECTION
What is power factor?
Power factor (PF) is the ratio of working
power, measured in kilowatts (kW), to
apparent power, measured in kilovolt amperes
(kVA).
->Apparent power, also known as demand, is
the measure of the amount of power used to
run machinery and equipment during a certain
period. It is found by multiplying (kVA = V x
A). The result is expressed as kVA unit.
MEASURES ADAPTED BY
HAL FOR POWER
FACTOR CORRECTION
Generally there are two methods for power factor
correction:
a)Synchronous motor method
b)Capacitor Bank/APFC
*A Synchronous Motor can be made to
operate at unity and leading power factor by
just increasing its excitation voltage i.e. by
increasing the field current. This advantage of
Synchronous Motor is used to improve the
power factor.
***In HAL,Sunabeda the Capacitor bank method is
used .
AUTOMATIC POWER
FACTOR CORRECTOR
Automatic Power Factor Corrector is the
equipment to improve power factor in industrial
networks.
Through multistep capacitor bank
implementation ,significant KVA reduction and
energy savings can be achieved.
In industries, a huge part of the load is inductive
and requires reactive power for current
magnetization. This reactive power is a waste and
not utilized for any actual work. And this leads to a
need for additional power to run a machine from
the ideal needs. This results in a low power factor
and can lead to voltage fluctuations, power issues,
operational losses, as well as higher electricity bills
and heavy penalties. APFC Panels also helps to
overcome this difficulty by maintaining the power
factor close to unity.
A power factor correction unit is consist of a
number of capacitor banks that are switched by
means of thyristor. These thyristors are regulated
by controller that measures the power factor in an
electric network.
The controller adjusts the number of capacitor
banks to improve the efficiency of electrical
system by taking into consideration the present
inductive load and the targeted power factor.If the
power factor is not within the preset target the
system starts energising the capacitors until the
desired power factor is reached.
APFC Panel has microcontroller based
programmable controller which switches the
capacitor banks of suitable capacity automatically
in multiple stages by directly reading the reactive
load (RKVA) which works in the principle of VAR
sensing tends to keep up the PF to 1.
COMPONENTS OF APFC PANEL
VACCUM CIRCUIT BREAKER:
A vacuum circuit breaker is a kind of circuit
breaker where the arc quenching takes place in a
vacuum medium.
SURGE ARRESTOR:
A surge arrester is a device to protect electrical
equipment from over-voltage transients caused by
external (lightning) or internal (switching) events.
SURGE CAPACITOR:
A surge capacitor is a device designed to absorb
surges and/or reduce the steepness of their wave
front. A capacitor is able to absorb and hold a
charge of electricity, returning it to the circuit at a
later time. Since the surge capacitor is always
connected to the power circuit, current flows at all
times.
HRC FUSE:
HRC fuse (high rupturing capacity fuse) is one
kind of fuse, where the fuse wire carries a short
circuit current in a set period. If the fault occurs in
the circuit then it blows off.
VACCUM CONTACTOR:
A vacuum contactor is a device that contains
electrical contacts inside a sealed “vacuum
interrupter” called a vacuum bottle. This sealed
environment in which the switching takes place
allows for a fast, clean “make/break” action of the
contacts in harsh, dirty environments.
SERIES REACTOR:
Series reactors are connected in series to power
capacitors. They suppress harmonics in the power
grid and prevent problems caused by unusual
events such as transient overcurrent and
overvoltage that are generated by opening and
closing of power capacitors.
CAPACITOR BANK:
Capacitors are used to keep the power factor
close to unity due to the presence of inductive load
in industries.

In HAL there are different types of hanger. Every
hanger has different load. There are 11 hanger in
Now we will see load details in each and every
hanger. In 103 hanger power consumption is very
high 9595170kv,which cost Rs 55236429kv.In 101
is total consumption of power is 1551740kv.In 102
power consumption is 7034800kv.In 103 power
consumption is 9595170kv. In 104 powewr
consumption is 1475550kv. In 105 power
consumption is 2802880kv. In 106 power
consumption 1704770kv. In N/T house 775220kv
power is used. In QAH power consumption is
880510kv.In ORH power consumption
is174670kv.In WTP 193500kv
Advantage of Power
Factor Correction
1. Avoid Power Factor Penalties
Most industrial processing facilities use many
induction motors to drive their pumps, conveyors,
and other machinery in the plant. These induction
motors cause the power factor to be inherently low
for most industrial facilities. Many electric utility
companies assess a power factor penalty for a
lower power factor (usually below 0.80 or 0.85).
Some also incentive high power factor (above
0.95, for example). By adding power factor
correction, you can eliminate the power factor
penalty from your bill.
4. Improved Voltage
A lower power factor causes a higher current flow
for a given load. As the line current increases, the
voltage drop in the conductor increases, resulting
in a lower voltage at the equipment. With an
improved power factor, the voltage drop in the
conductor is reduced, improving the voltage of the
equipment.
CONCLUSION
Automatic Power Factor Corrector is a very
essential equipment used in industries to reduce
the Reactive power consumption thereby for
reducing expenses.
Automatic Power Factor Controller does not
require any employee to be present for the whole
time to operate it. As the loads vary time to time
the APFC functions to increase the power factor to
keep up with pf 1.
At peak hours when there is power factor of about
0.78 to 0.8 ,the APFC brings it to 0.98 and
sometimes 0.99 thereby reducing the high
electricity bills.
