FACTS ENGINEERING Product Lines We Repair
Our engineers are trained on the full FACTS ENGINEERING product range. Below are the major product families we service.
Static VAR Compensator (SVC) Controllers
Thyristor-based reactive power control systems for industrial power factor correction. Common issues include thyristor firing circuit failures, capacitor bank voltage regulation drift, and control signal loss leading to voltage instability and harmonics.
STATCOM (Static Synchronous Compensator)
Voltage source inverter-based systems for dynamic reactive power support and voltage regulation. Repair needs include IGBT gate driver faults, DC capacitor degradation, control processor crashes, and phase-locked loop (PLL) synchronization issues.
Harmonic Filter Banks and Active Harmonic Conditioners
Passive and active filtering systems that eliminate current and voltage harmonics in industrial networks. Common faults include capacitor bank insulation breakdown, reactor coil short circuits, filter tuning resonance shifts, and active conditioner DSP malfunction.
Thyristor-Controlled Reactor (TCR) and Thyristor-Switched Capacitor (TSC) Units
Discrete reactive element control for step-based power factor correction and flicker mitigation. Repair involves thyristor switch replacement, gate driver circuit restoration, snubber network design, and soft-start protection recalibration.
FACTS Controller Interface and Monitoring Panels
Human-machine interfaces, protection relays, and real-time monitoring systems for FACTS devices. Issues include touchscreen display failures, Ethernet gateway processor crashes, analog input card calibration loss, and firmware corruption.

Common FACTS ENGINEERING Equipment Faults We Fix
Based on 30+ years of repair data, these are the most frequent failure modes we see in FACTS ENGINEERING equipment arriving at our workshop.
- ✓SVC Thyristor Firing Pulse Loss or Asymmetry — Thyristor gate drive circuits degrade due to high dV/dt transients and thermal cycling in Indian steel mills and cement plants. Optocoupler degradation or capacitor aging in the driver circuit breaks synchronized firing.
- ✓STATCOM Inverter Overcurrent Trip with No Fault Code — Software calibration drift in current measurement transducers, CTs becoming non-linear, or PWM carrier frequency instability causing false peak detection in digital controllers common in Indian steel rolling mills.
- ✓Harmonic Filter Capacitor Bank Overvoltage and Blown Fuses — Resonance between filter impedance and network inductance during switching transients, or parallel capacitor branch imbalance causing voltage distribution inequality. Common in Indian power plants with weak grid connections.
- ✓PLL Synchronization Failure in STATCOM Control Processor — Phase-locked loop loses lock due to grid frequency variations (49.5-50.5 Hz common in Indian grids), voltage phase jump events, or outdated firmware not handling 3-phase voltage distortion.
- ✓DC Capacitor Voltage Ripple and Inverter Efficiency Drop — Capacitor ageing (typical life 10-12 years in Indian tropical climate), ESR increase, or control loop instability causing higher switching ripple in STATCOM units operating 24/7.
- ✓Remote Communication Loss Between FACTS Controller and SCADA System — Ethernet gateway processor hangs, fiber optic transceiver failure, or protocol buffer overflow from rapid parameter updates in Indian power distribution networks using legacy SCADA systems.

Frequently Asked Questions — FACTS ENGINEERING Repairs
Do you repair FACTS Engineering equipment anywhere in India?+
Yes. Synchronics repairs the full FACTS Engineering product range - Static VAR Compensators, STATCOMs, Harmonic Filter Banks, and associated control electronics. We offer PAN India door-to-door pickup service from Mumbai, Delhi, Pune, Chennai, Hyderabad, Bangalore, Ahmedabad, and all tier-2 industrial cities. Equipment is serviced and returned from our main facility in Vadodara, Gujarat. Typical turnaround is 7-14 days depending on fault complexity.
How do you diagnose FACTS SVC or STATCOM faults without full system startup?+
Synchronics uses modular bench testing — we power individual boards at reduced voltages, simulate grid voltage waveforms using programmable AC sources, and capture gate drive signals with oscilloscopes. This isolates faults (e.g. thyristor gate driver failure vs. capacitor aging) without risking the entire power network. We provide detailed diagnostic reports showing which submodule needs repair or replacement.
Can you restore FACTS controller firmware and reprogramming?+
Absolutely. Our team has access to FACTS Engineering controller documentation and can reload firmware from backup files or reprogram control algorithms if corrupted. We recalibrate PID tuning parameters for your specific grid impedance, reactor size, and load characteristics. Custom tuning is critical — factory defaults rarely work optimally in Indian power networks with variable frequency (49.5-50.5 Hz) and weak short-circuit ratios.
What is the typical cost to repair a STATCOM inverter card versus replacement?+
Repair costs 30-50% of new card cost depending on fault — IGBT replacement typically runs 15000-35000 INR, driver board restoration 8000-18000 INR. For 20+ year old units, component obsolescence may require engineering redesign. Synchronics prepares a detailed cost-benefit analysis so you can decide repair vs. replacement. Modern STATCOM cards often justify refurbishment given 4-6 week lead times for OEM delivery to India.
Do you test and recalibrate current measurement transformers (CTs) in Harmonic Filter Banks?+
Yes. CTs drift significantly after 8-10 years of continuous operation in Indian industrial plants. We perform turns ratio testing, saturation curve mapping, and secondary winding resistance measurement. If CTs are non-linear, we either refurbish with secondary coil rewinding or fit precision replacement CTs and recalibrate the control system's current measurement offsets. This eliminates false overcurrent trips.
How do I send my FACTS ENGINEERING unit for repair?+
Pack the unit securely and courier it to our Vadodara workshop. Include a note with the fault description and your contact details. We will log it into our system and WhatsApp you a job number within 24 hours of receipt. Doorstep pickup is available in Vadodara, Ahmedabad, Surat, Mumbai, and Pune.
What is the cost of repairing a FACTS ENGINEERING drive or PLC?+
Repair cost depends on the model and the fault. We offer a free diagnosis — once we identify the fault, we provide a fixed quotation before proceeding. Typical repairs cost 20–40% of the new unit price. We will never repair without your approval.
What warranty do you provide on FACTS ENGINEERING repairs?+
All repaired units carry a 6-month comprehensive warranty covering the same fault and related issues. If the fault recurs within the warranty period, we repair it free of cost.
Do you provide a no-fix, no-fee guarantee?+
Yes. If we cannot repair your FACTS ENGINEERING unit after diagnosis, you pay only the diagnosis fee (₹500–₹1,500 depending on the product). The unit is returned to you at no additional charge.
