why capacitors cant used in genset to maintain power factor..??

Answer Posted / n k singh

The main purpose of capacitor is to generate reactive power
and hence improves the power factor.Therefore it must be
installed at load end otherwise if we install at source end
then there will be transmission loss till the load
point,which is undesirable,hence it must be at load end.
