to improve the existing power factor whether capacitors
have to be added in series or parallel.and why

Answer Posted / ghanshyam singh

as we all know that the capacitor takes the leading current
thus the total current taken by the device also have a
leading current....as generally our load is inductive in
nature, which takes the lagging current, thus the
capacitive current also compensate the lagging current
causing the powert factor to improve
