Why we are not using capacitor in line when load on Genset?

Answer / kadiresan.k
whether the load is on EB or DG, p.f to be maintained close
to unity and the type of load to be studied and capacitor
to be connected accordingly. The Capacitors to be switched
ON and OFF according to the load with the help of APFC
panels / Controllers. In case of load shedding time, the
concerned capacitors to be tuned off immediately, else it
will result in over voltage at the system if the load is on
DG side. So the power system to be optimised to handle the
load in both EB and DG with proper power factor correction
systems.

By putting capacitor on Genset what we are doing is only
loading the genset additionally.
Capacitor is used to improve the power factor of the
system. This is important for the power supply cos; hence
they insist that pf should be 0.9 or thereabout.
Hence it is compulsory to use Capacitors to improve the PF
if below 0.8 or they will fine you.
When using a gen set we have to see what is the type of
load. If it is motor load inductive then we have to switch
on some of the capacitor banks only.

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/
which fault current is maximum: 3 phase short circuit, LG, LL or LLG?? why?? in one of the problems that i have solved, 3 phase short circuit current on an unloaded generator came out to be less than the LG fault current. can anybody please explain why.
