Capacitor banks protection, cautions and maintenance tips

The star-connected capacitor bank is used for medium to high voltage applications. In star connection, the voltage across each capacitor is root 3 times lesser than the phase voltage, so the voltage stress across the capacitors is low even in high voltage applications. There are two types of star connections in the capacitor bank:
