How Does the KVAR Energy Controller (EC) work?
KVAR EC fine tunes the electrical system from the inductive equipment (motors) back through the utility company’s KVA electric meter, kilowatt hour meter (kWh) or demand meter. This fine tuning slows down the operation of the meter, reduces the amount of power drawn from the utility and therefore saves on electricity consumption. The KVAR EC stores the reactive power to create the electromagnetic field (EMF) around the inductive windings of a motor by storing in its capacitors. As motors operate, reactive power is “pulled” and”pushed” to and from the KVAR EC by the motor at 60 cycles/second. The KVAR EC stores and releases what the motors need to function more efficiently. This unique approach reduces the heat generated on the lines and therefore reduces the strain placed on all the electrical components so they actually will increase their life expectancy. Electricity that is normally pushed back through the power distribution lines is now reclaimed and recycled by the KVAR EC. The KV
