If load is 240 kw & pf is 0.8 lagging, than how to increase
it from0.8 to 1.0(unit),which rating capacitor used, please
give me Calculation. What is effact of consumer & suplier
if pf is lagging or leading with on effect machines/ TF/GE
etc.

Answer Posted / abduljameel

Normally required capacitors will be in KVAR.
Required KVAR = KW (tan pi1 - tan pi2 )
cos pi1= .8
cos pi2 =1

then calculate accordingly
