The Cooper Power Systems CBC-8000 capacitor bank control is an
elite Smart Grid capacitor bank control designed to deliver on Smart
Grid automation benefits.
CBC-8000 Series Capacitor Bank Control
Overview
The Cooper Power Systems CBC-8000 capacitor bank control
is an elite Smart Grid capacitor bank control designed to deliver
on Smart Grid automation benefits. The CBC-8000 capacitor
bank control is designed with a broad range of deployment
options to enhance grid efficiency and health.
On the utility distribution system, capacitor banks are critical
components in the effectiveness of any volt/VAR automation,
the CBC-8000 capacitor bank control easily integrates
with radios, radio networks and to SCADA. The CBC-8000
capacitor bank control can be remotely controlled, scanned,
programmed, and the data logs downloaded over a secure
network, reducing time in the field and operational costs.
Features
The features of the CBC-8000 capacitor bank control are:
■■ Automatic or remote operation
■■ DNP3 compliant
■■ Ease of radio integration
■■ Seven analog inputs to report the individual three-phase
measurements
■■ Neutral current and harmonic alarming to report the
operational health of the capacitor bank control
■■ Communication loss failsafe modes in the event of
communication loss
Key Benefits
A truly scalable capacitor bank control is a staple in maximizing
long-term return on investment as your system expands and

networks evolve. With that said, the benefits of the CBC-8000
capacitor bank control are:
Can be configured to operate as a traditional stand-alone
control or a robust, feature-rich communications enabled
control with pluggable communications modules that integrate
seamlessly with the utility network of choice.
Monitors every aspect of the site’s health with full three-phase
voltage, current, VAR, and harmonic monitoring as well as
capacitor bank neutral current monitoring.
Unsolicited alarming of why a control command did not operate
keeps your master station apprised when local conditions
prevent remote operation.
Ease of Installation
The ease of installation for the CBC-8000 capacitor bank
control is flexible as it can be mounted as a four-jaw, six-jaw or
pole-mount installation.
Ease of Firmware Management
The CBC-8000 capacitor bank control introduces an industry
first in firmware management. The firmware for the CBC8000 capacitor bank control can be upgraded or downloaded
through Cooper Power Systems ProView NXG software utilizing
either the control’s local USB connection or remotely from the
office using radio communications.
Data Logging
The data logging capabilities of the CBC-8000 capacitor bank
control are:
CBC-8000
■■ Allows engineers to select over 100
unique analog points and events
to be logged into the data log/
sequence of events (SOE) and be
retrieved remotely from the utility’s
back office without having to visit
the control location.
■■ Log data in user selectable
recording intervals.
■■ Offers refined power quality
event monitoring—in the event of
complaints or grid anomalies that
may need detailed analysis.
Control Strategies
The various control strategies of the
CBC-8000 capacitor bank control are:
■■ Remote operation
■■ Voltage
■■ VAR
■■ Time schedule
■■ Temperature
■■ Current
■■ User configurable analog inputs
Remote Control Automation
The CBC-8000 capacitor bank
control is specifically designed for
remote operation and retrieval of field
measurements points for analysis by
Integrated Volt/VAr applications.
This highly flexible and programmable
control includes:
■■ Continuous site voltage protection
■■ Alternate threshold set points
■■ Conservation voltage reduction
(CVR) thresholds
■■ Communication loss protection
■■ Unsolicited reporting of state
change, field alarms, or threshold
violations.
Reason for ignored commands. The
CBC-8000 capacitor bank control
reports why a remote command cannot
be acted upon, such as local voltage
conditions or that the capacitor bank
control is in “manual mode”.
Three-phase monitoring. The CBC8000 capacitor bank control has
Capacitor Bank Control
seven analog inputs for full threephase monitoring and neutral current
sensing. Individual A, B and C phase
measurement reporting of:
■■ Voltage
■■ Current
■■ VAR
■■ Power
Alarm set points for low and high
threshold levels are locally or remotely
configurable.
Neutral current sensing. A neutral
current sensor can be applied to monitor
the health and operational availability of
the capacitor banks.
Voltage threshold reporting. This
feature lets you set voltage thresholds,
which when exceeded, cause the CBC8000 capacitor bank control to transmit
a report of the line voltage condition
(applicable to two-way communications).
Harmonic reporting. The capacitor
bank control monitors total harmonic
distortion (THD) and individual phase
harmonics for both current and voltage
up to the 13th harmonic.
Operational Delay Timers
The unit can be configured with
delay times for trip, close and reclose
operations. The delay times give field
personnel time to move away from the
bank after initiating control and before
the switch operates. The operational
delay times can be set locally or
remotely.
