Abstract: A single phase grid correction system for correcting the power factor of an electrical power grid. The grid has a generator, transmission lines connecting the generator to distribution nodes, feeder lines radiating from each node, and groups of consumers connected to each feeder line. A capacitor bank is located at a number of consumer's premises, indoors, either beside or forming part of the consumer's normal single phase electric panel. A set of remotely controlled switches at the consumer's premises permits the capacitor banks to be switched in and out of grid connection and also allows non-essential high energy consuming loads, not necessarily inductive, to be switched on and off the grid. The grid correction systemic are widely distributed at consumer's premises throughout the grid.
