why we need of power factor correction? give advantages
Answer Posted / nagaraju thangella
The powerfactor plays an important role in AC Since pwr consumed depends on PF
A PF Less than unity results in
Larger kva rating of equipment.
Larger copper losses
Poor voltage regulation
Reduced handling capacity
KW=KVA Cos phi
Hence we correct power factor

In a power conditoining unit (inverter) of a solar plant when we measure the d.c. current fed by different strings of solar plates to inverter, the current in the negative wire is less almost by 1 ampere to the current in its positive wire say current in positive wire 5 A , then current in negative wire of the same string is 4 A. Since the current entering should be equal to current leaving then why the current is noticably less in negative wire.
