1 : Power Factor correction capacitors
2 : Improve the load percentage of particular equipment
avoid habbits of using lightly loaded machines which
results large power consumptions i.e.wastage of power .
3: Try using energy savings equipments example in fan
regulator (TRIAC) are used which results it dosent depends
upon the fan speed it will give the same amount of power at
all the times while in old regulator where rehostat are
used which results wastage of power.
Improving power factor is nothing but saving energy
consumptions!!!
