5. Can the KVAR be installed in every home or business?
6. Are there 3-phase KVAR for commercial applications?
   Yes. Systems are available for 3 phase 200 and 400 amp panel mount applications, as well as for the more commercial applications as utilized in large induction motor assemblies. KVAR® has a patented apparatus and methodology for determining the exact amount of capacitance that is needed to optimize inductive motors to achieve maximum savings. These larger three phase motors would generally have the KVAR® EC installed at the motors’ disconnect, after first having trained electricians carry out an individual sizing of the respective motors. This exact science enables the commercial customer to achieve the quickest return on investment (ROI).
