How to calculate PF capactors for a connected load?..

Answer / ramji

First calculate the actual KVAR load.Then calculated the
actual PF.Then as per required PF, calculate the KVAR to be
added.This is the value of capacitor bank to be shunted.

How to calculate PF capactors for a connected load?..

Answer / g parsaram reddy

capacitor bank selection base on the connected load

ex - 500kw load formula is kvar = kw ( tan cos-1pf) - (tan cos-1pf)there is power factor taken lower and higher valu , ex2 kvar= 250(tan cos-1 0.8)- (tan cos-1 0.96)step2 kvar=250(tan36.36-tan16.26) than 250(0.74-0.29) than250(0.45)than kvar=114.5this is required

Electricty is generated at around 16kV, then step up to 220kV for transmission then steped down to power transformers then DTs and then through the LT n/w it reaches the consumer end. At the consumer end 230V supply is required. So, why is electricity not generated directly at 230V and transmitted?
