Answer / bala sundaram

it will depend upon a machine.

alternator:
excitation current will increase means power factor will decrease bcoz E is increased & resultant E induced and load current phase angle is reduced so power factor reduced

synchronous motor
on over excitation it will increase a power factor.

Answer / gulshan goyal

it depends on the machine.If it is a motor and if we
increase excutation power will shift from lagging to
leading.as we increse the excitation angle will first
decrease as in lagging side than angle will increase in
leading side and hence the power factor will initially may
be .8 lagging than .9L,.95L,1 than .95 leading ,.9Ld,.8Ld
