Var+ controls 208V capacitor bank
This Capacitor bank is used to store energy for the high demand larger machines / motors use on start up. It was removed in a plant clean out / bankruptcy and was in use at the time of removal. I have all the original paper work on the system, including their power savings summaries. The unit was purchased new in 1993 @ $3,224.00.
