Capacitor Bank Unbalance Protection Calculations and …

In general, we use short-circuit programs set to protection elements, such as distance or overcurrent. However, the commonly used short-circuit programs do not include modules for unbalance calculations in capacitor banks. The IEEE Std C37.99 [1] advocates numerical multistep unbalance calculations.
