Answer / ajit singh

yes the power factor in any organization should maintain from .8 to .99 or 1,

Answer / laxminarayan

In Industrial sector there are more inductive loads.The
inductive loads draws more load current.So maximum will be
the power factor less will be the load currnt.So power
factor should be maintained 0.97 to 0.99

Answer / er. dattesh shah

0.999

Answer / ashish rai

It should be near to one(less than one) . but not to one.
For stability static device has come which control the
capacitor bank automatically. So there is no problem of
stability . If anyone are going for the small industry , he
should try to maintain it near to .95. .80 is not so
effective power factor now a days. It can be acceptable for
home application not for the industrial purpose.

Answer / vishok

It should be close to 0.8.

Answer / harish

and same here to, we maintain of power factor of .8 or .9,
must close to that

Answer / william lobo.

We maintain 0.8 and above since we are penalised by KEB for
low pf. we generally maintain close to 0.9 by use of power
capacitors. Too high i.e. above .95 is too costly to
install and also the problem is that if power factor is
close to 1 then there are chances of high voltage affects
motors and we suffer more motor burning at our plant.

Answer / sandeep lole

In industries, mostly the loads are inductive type. So the
PF is low near about 0.8 lagging. Due to that the load
current is maximum.We can improve the PF by using Capacitor
bank in industrial substation. So that we can improve Pf
upto 0.99. For that proper design of capacitor bank is
important.

Answer / manish singla

I have always maintained Power Factor 1 (Not Leading Nor
Lagging) during my days with Maintenance Deptt.

Resulting in saving of Atleast Rs40k in monthly bills,
Better Voltage etc.

Answer / manish singla

In our state we get Incentive for maintaining Power Factor
over and above 0.90 Lagging till Unity.

Secondly, Maintaing Power Factor at Unity keeps your
distribution system healthy resulting in low line losses
within your premises as well inputs of your premises.

This is wrong statement that it will lead to burning of
equipments and premature failure of electrical equipment.

Is motor current is dependent on load.
