Power capacitors became a focus of production. Added to this were reactive power factor controllers, filter circuit chokes, complete reactive power compensation systems and passive filters. <\/p>\n<p>From the 1990s onwards, the emerging Asian markets were the focus of company development. New production facilities and representatives were established in order to supply the local markets quickly and economically.<\/p>\n<p>With the rapid increase in non-linear consumers such as frequency converters, power supplies, LED lighting, etc. as well as the decentralized feed-in of wind and solar systems, complex grid disturbances increased significantly.<\/p>\n<p>As a result, we carry out power grid analyses using the latest power quality measurement technology worldwide to show our customers ways to solve problems.<\/p>\n<p>Upon request, we can also have reports prepared by a publicly appointed and sworn expert.<\/p>\n<p>Our state-of-the-art and extremely fast active filters, developed and produced in Germany, can solve a wide range of power grid problems.<\/p>\n<p>Thanks to many years of production experience and the continuous development of our products, we offer the know-how for an interference-free and energy-saving power supply.<\/p>\n<p>FRANKE Elektrotechnik<\/p>\n<p>Your competent partner Made in GERMANY since 1947<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=&#8221;1_4&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.4&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_image src=&#8221;https:\/\/www.franke-electric.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/franke_firmengeschichte_1.webp&#8221; alt=&#8221;Founder Alfred Franke, Eng.
