How can we reduce the reactive power consumption of your 12.5 MVA power transformer...

Answer / manish yadav

basically reactive power consumption is depend upon the
load pf.. as Q=kw*sin@ ...n so make an arrangement such
that capacitor is connected across the secondary while load
is on n get separated at low load ..or no load

Answer / suburavichandran

add a power factor correcting capacitor to all the loads you are using.. now most of the loads are provided with such an arrangement. hence you can minimize the reactive power consumption

21 Answers Avalon, Edison, Hyundai,

At site, we have 30Kw motor (3 phase, 400V,50Hz) and FLC 54A as per the nameplate. At the time of starting it draws 840A instead of 390A (7.2%). As per the data sheet also its 390A starting current. it thru a dol starter from the MCC. can anyone tell what is the problem in the motor
