I have a 1000 kVA Transformer(11kV/0.415kV) and a APFC panel of 400 kVAR(LT).No

I have a 1000 kVA Transformer(11kV/0.415kV) and a APFC panel
of 400 kVAR(LT).Now if i want to remove the LT APFC panel
and install a HT(11kV) APFC panel on the HT side is the HT
APFC panel will work same as the LT APFC panel(improve the
power factor),if yes what will be rating of the HT APFC
panel?what is the formula to calculate HT APFC panel rating???

Answer / k.prakashchandra

The power on HT side is equal to power on LT side +
3%(1.6%). The power rating of APFC remains the same.

Answer / kathiravan

Since the PF is corrected "before" the bank is connected
(EX:A--------B---------------C----------------D-----------E.
Suppose If the bank is connected the location @"C",the PF will be corrected from location A to C only,where as location C to E will not be effected by the installation of location C)there wont be much effected weather to locate capacitor either primary or secondary of the transformer.Rating of the capacitor must be the respect of HV/LV supply voltage.

Please clarify, 1. Is it required to lay two runs of GI wire along with Armoured LT cable if it is laid between one big mains (63Amps TPN SDF) to small main (32A TPN SDF) with proper glanding termination? 2. If the armoured cable with proper glanding is laid from DB to CNC machine, is it required to run two runs of body earthing to the Machine from DB? 3.If the armoured cable with proper glanding is laid from Substation to Hangar, distance is approx. 100 mtrs, is it required to do earthing at shop area though the primary termination at substation is earthed through gland.
