Multi-servers system with Firebird database for automatic reactive power compensation

The paper presents the concept, implementation and operational effects of the multi-servers automatic reactive power compensation system in 6 kV industry electrical power grid. As controlled reactive power compensators were used synchronous motors, capacitors’ banks and passive filters of higher harmonics available in the power grid of the plant. System of communication and collaboration of control servers with databases was disclosed. Use of events technology of Firebird database was discussed. Clients’ application for industry grid state and compensation system monitoring were presented. Results of operation and planned modernization of the system was presented.
