Discharge Resistor Capacitor Bank. Each capacitor unit is provided with a discharge resistor that reduces the unit residual voltage to 50v in 5 minutes. Capacitor units are available in a variety of voltage ratings 240 v to 24940v and sizes 2 5 kvar to about 1000 kvar.

A discharge tool is really just a resistor and a bit of wire to connect it to the posts on the capacitor. The internal discharge device is a resistor that reduces the unit residual voltage to 50v or less in 5 min. They are just saying the capacitor bank will have a specific discharge time for all kvar sizes they offer.

Each capacitor unit is provided with a discharge resistor that reduces the unit residual voltage to 50v in 5 minutes. Resistors are an important part of capacitor charge and discharge circuits. A circuit with no pre charge can cause a large voltage difference and a sudden high inrush current. They are just saying the capacitor bank will have a specific discharge time for all kvar sizes they offer.
