Consider a case that two 200 hp motors are connected to 500KVA transformer. For improving power factor can we add capacitors in common bus bars to motors. Or should we add capacitors for each individual motor?

Answer / manish panchal
Actually it depends on the motor's actual pf and the load with which motor is connected, so we have to connect capacitor with individual motor according to its pf.

Normally, Induction motor current lags the voltage (lagging power factor), to improve the system power factor, we have to add the capacitors in parallel with the load end. Somewhat we can improve the PF to some extend value.

if v r considering a 4000/1A ct,if v inject 1 amps in secondary core wat happens?(consider as 2 core ct,each for metering and protection)
why CT ratio stand for 50/5, 100/5, 25/5.
In CDG type IDMTL realy O/L , E/F, O/C which are used for out going feedrs,on R-phase o/c element, Y-phase , e/f elecment and on b -phase o/c element will be connected . Why the earth fault on center phase only, why not on other two phases?
two phases with neutral supply can be taken in 3C X 10 sq.mm cable .
