It is not recommended to keep power factor leading:

1) We try to keep power factor unit to reduce transmission
losses, this main purpose will not achieved by keeping
leading power factor. If power factor is lower than unit
(it can be leading or lagging) transmission loss will
increase.
2) During leading power factor if we make any breaker
operation (close/open)it will generate high voltage across
breaker, which is harmful to breaker. For capacitive load
operation we need a special breaker.
3) It is not correct that keeping leading power factor
shows more KW and less KVA.

Yes there is effect on electrical system.The power will be
lost and could not maintain the voltage in the capacitor
bank system. so we can keeping power factor in leading
shows more KW and less KVA.It is correct.

A powerplant has 8 gensets operating in grid parallel mode. In one genset sometimes there is pf variation and kvar variation. The plant operates in pf mode. When this variation is observed the load is stable, voltage is also stable, freq and genset speed is also stable. How will you check the functioning of pf card. What shall be the ideal output vdc of the pfc, from there it is input to AVR?

In a company the lines carrying 33KV but the load is below 10000Volts so we know that <11KV we can put 11KV lines but the lines are 33KV,..so how we can step down the voltage to 11KV with out erecting a substation

Our Alternator nameplate specifies a power factor of 0.8. When the Alternator is on light load, the bus bar voltage rises to 11240 volts, whereas the standard value is 10500 volts. Is it ok to increase the power factor to 0.85 or 0.9. I am afraid because the power factor on the name plate is only 0.8 ?
