a 25kvar capacitor bank connected to the secondary side of transformer.then why the capacitor draw..

Answer / aravind

Because the capacitor is using for powerfactor improvement
and it is regulating the voltage level thatsway we have
getting more current than rated

Answer / arvind

if you are connect capacitor on the secondary side that
means you are correcting the power factor of load side, but
if you put the bank on the primary side then u will notice
the current required will be less.

i am swathi, b.tech 4th year. In smps(switched mode power supply)we are using diodes,mosfets,igbts for controling of current. And my question is why we did not use thyristors(scr)? it is also act as a switch,then what is the drawback of scr as compared to above transisters> if we use the scr,then what is happening ? plz give reply as soon as possible bcoz i am doing project on smps. plz frnds i want ans for that. if anybody know the ans plz send to my e-mail id /swathi.tadakapally@gmail.com/
