can we correct the p.f.of ac generator?

Answer Posted / mohammad afzal

yes, we can correct the p.f of ac generator by manually
varying the volatage of generator and exciting current of
the field rotor. the recommended range of the p.f should
between 0.9 to 0.98 lagging. poor p.f more armature current
and increase in temperature of stator which is not
desirable.
