Abstract
A method and an apparatus are presented which enable the identification of a capacitor fault in a given string of a capacitor bank, based on the computation of the string impedance by measuring the string AC current and voltages, where each string includes a plurality of capacitor elements connected in series. The method consists of measuring the string capacitive impedance and comparing this value with a previously measured capacitive impedance of the same string. If a difference between these two values is obtained, which exceeds a given threshold for a certain duration, a fault is recorded.
