Answer / kavidasan.k
the cosin of angle of voltage and current is called p.f.
the connected loads are may be indutance and resitenance
means it will have lagging p.f(e.g.0.75p.f.)that means u
are consuming only 75% of power but u need to pay 100% for
that in this situation we use capacitor banks(capacitor
have leading p.f.)this capacitor bank will reduce that
lagging,so u r power factor will improve to(e.g.0.95)so u
now consuming 95% power for the same cost as u pay before

Answer / srini1990
for ex in x^n line each phase consists of reactance values so
increase the value of reactance is called improving the power factor . according to this the capacitor is connected across the phases it will increase the power factor

Is there any problem if i connect APFC panel in generator circuit
How to calculate KVA/VA rating of PT or CT from primary & secondary voltage or primary & secondary current?
why restricted earth fault protection can not operate for phase faults??as there will be a current in secondary of ct,when a phase fault occurs!

How to calibrate or test an LT Air Circuit breaker 440 volts, 35 KA, 800 Amps ?
Different STANDARDS (BS, IS, IEC etc) gives different informations on CT specification. How they correspons w r t each other (i.e I mean to say BS provides "knee point voltage" but IS does not, then how can i select CT)
relation between power station capacity and voltage level?
Why we say three phase voltage 440v.
how the frequency was generated in power station
