The Schneider Electric METSEPM5330 is a three-phase AC line reactor (input choke) designed for installation on the input side of variable frequency drives (VFDs) to improve power quality and protect drive systems. It functions as a passive inductive component that mitigates harmonic distortion, limits inrush currents, and reduces electrical noise in industrial and commercial applications.
