Power Factor Correction units are technical equipment that houses intricate electrical components that are designed to reduce the maximum demand. Over time, the electrical components may deteriorate, and dust will gather in the unit. This will result in a decline in your PFC unit’s performance and lifespan. Keep your PFC unit performing at its optimal condition by making an appointment with our team for routine maintenance.

All PFC units contain complex electrical components that work together to reduce kVA and, in turn, improve your energy efficiency. Like any piece of equipment, regular maintenance is essential to ensure optimal performance levels are maintained, and the system is doing the job it was installed to do.
If neglected, the components in your PFC unit may malfunction. Dust and debris may also gather in the unit, which will become a hazard.
Our team was called out to inspect this Power Factor Correction Unit in a shopping centre. Upon inspection, we noticed the unit could no longer be salvaged.
Not only would the management be experiencing a spike in their electricity bill, but it is also a fire hazard that can potentially damage the property and endanger lives.
