<p>Variable shunt and series connected reactors are used in a complimentary combination in an electric arc furnace to provide improved flicker control. A power control system for an time-varying AC load, such as an electric arc furnace, connected to an AC power supply line includes a first variable reactance intermediate the power supply line and the load, and a second variable reactance connected in parallel with the power supply line. A control system is provided for (i) monitoring load current and adjusting the first variable reactance in response to changes in the monitored load current; and (ii) monitoring reactive power draw by the load and adjusting the second variable reactance in response to changes in the monitored reactive power draw. The first variable reactance and second variable reactance are each primarily used to mitigate flicker at different times during the load operation.</p> |
