JAMMU, July 31: SmartNet Services launched their electrical load reduction device “Smart Power”, here today.
On the occasion, former Member Parliament (MP) Janak Raj Gupta was the chief guest, who launched the devise in presence of Vipan Nischal, Jammu Chief Congress Seva Dal and officials of SmartNet Services.
Managing Director (MD) of SmartNet Services, Vikas Thamman said this device will help people in getting the electrical running load reduced from 20 per cent to 40 per cent. This device is installed very next to electricity meter on a main switch and works as a Power Factor Controlling device. This device is easy to install and maintenance free.
It also protects home appliances from burning during high voltages (440V) and above. This device is equipped with VDR circuit, which auto cuts the circuit and saves the appliances. This is 100 per cent guaranteed by the company, Thamman informed.
In Industries during new connection application, shunt capacitors are mandatory to be installed, then only new connection is allotted. In running industries if one does not maintain power factor a penalty as per regulations is imposed, where as if the same is maintained incentives are also given to the consumer. Power Factor Controller helps electricity boards, companies and Government in saving electricity, he added.
Working on this technology, the company came up with a device which not only reduces startup loads but also manages running loads. Technically this is advanced stage of shunt capacitors. Shunt capacitors used in industry incur higher running costs where as these devices have low running costs and come with replacement guarantee, he informed.
A live demo of load reduction was also shown which revealed load reduction.
