Alpha Drives Ltd. selected as a Siemens SIVACON S4 [...]

A concrete works plant asked us to provide a solution to bring power from a main transformer room over 100m to a new production building containing mixers and other processing machinery.

Reducing your maximum import capacity (MIC) from your Power provider by as little as 50 kVAr could save you in excess of €3000 per annum. Depending on your agreed MIC from the ESB if you have too much capacity your are paying for something you are not using and too little capacity you can then run into penalties once exceeded.
