No, capacitor banks reduce harmonics. They act like a low pass filter. They also raise voltage by compensating for inductance and bringing the power factor back closer to 1.
Capacitor banks in the power system can cause transients when randomly closed - many utilities use zero voltage closing equipment, or inductors to counteract this short time harmonic problem.

How do you reduce elctrical harmonics?
You will need to calculate a capacitor at the output stage in order to prevent interaction with the networks connected after the output.
What is the differencebetween a run capacitor and start capacitor?
The run capacitor is used when the load is functional while the start capacitor is used to produce the initial torque to drive the load.
Why do complex non-sinusoidal signals produce greater bandwidth?
because they have more harmonics
Advantages of bank capacitor?
Capacitor banks can improve the power factor if the load is leading, which is unusual. Typically in substations capacitor banks are employed to reduce over voltage.
Why does a static condenser differ from synchronous condenser?
Unlike a static condenser (capacitor bank), the value of reactive power from a synchronous condenser can be continuously adjusted. A synchronous condenser also has other advantages over static condensers such as: - not being affecting by harmonics (some harmonics can even be absorbed by a synch condenser) - producing no switching transients

The relative amplitude of harmonics produce different sounding notes?
No
Are fixed capacitor banks on continuously?
Sure brah
What is the use of a capacitor in circuit?
the capacitor is store the charge and used as back up
Where is the location of capacitor banks in the sub stations?
They can physically be located almost anywhere. Capacitor banks are typically attached to the bus in substations. Reactors are often tapped off lines.
What is the use of harmonic filter in capacitor bank?
harmonic filter capacitor is used to filterize the unwanted heat created by a certain component like power supply. harmonics are voltage or currents that operates a certain frequency. john

How can you use capacitors in full wave rectification?
The capacitor is not involved in the rectification ... that's all taken care of before anything reaches the capacitor. What's left is a DC component with many harmonics of the line frequency added to it. By providing a low-impedance path to ground for AC frequencies, the capacitor effectively shunts the harmonics to ground, 'filtering' them out of the raw rectified signal, and (hopefully) leaving only the DC component with only a small amount of "ripple" energy at the harmonic frequencies.

Is the cello capable of playing muted and harmonies?
A 'cello is capable of playing muted and can also play harmonics.
