Capstone Turbine Corporation • 21211 Nordhoff Street • Chatsworth • CA 91311 • USA Technical Reference: Capstone MicroTurbine Electrical Installation Load Capacity The MicroTurbine output is current limited. The MicroTurbine can operate loads with any power factor, so long as current limits are not exceeded. The current (I) consumed by the load(s) is a function of real power (Watts), volts (V) and the power factor (PF). W 3 ×V × PF The allowable power factor (PF) will be a function of the real load and the maximum phase current. Power derating curves for ambient temperature and elevation should be considered when determining real power (Watts). Refer to the Model C30 Performance Technical Reference (410004) and to the Model C60 Performance Technical Reference (410005) for additional details. For example, with a total 30 kW load operating at 480 Volts AC with a current limit of 46 ARMS per phase, the lowest allowable power factor (PF) is as follows: 30000 = 0.78 (480×46× 3) Operating at 376 volts AC, the lowest allowable power factor (PF) is as follows: 30000 = 1 (376×46× 3) Operating voltages lower than 376 volts AC will consequently reduce the total available output power of the MicroTurbine according to the following: W=46× 3×V×PF I= NOTE Incorrect determination of load capacity can cause the MicroTurbine to fault. Grounding The MicroTurbine system (ground terminal) must ALWAYS be connected to Earth Ground during system operation. The neutral terminal of the MicroTurbine output terminal block MUST BE connected to ground at the branch circuit disconnect. The MicroTurbine neutral-to-ground post (if equipped) should be removed. Refer to Figures 2 and 3 as required. 410009-001 Rev C (September 2003) Page 15 of 24 This information is proprietary to Capstone Turbine Corporation.
