why reactive power control is required

Answer Posted / chreamz

Reactive Power is directly proportional to Current and
Inversely proportional to Power Factor. Meaning, the higher
the VAr, the higher the I and lower PF. Hence, we'll have
an increase in size of the cunductors. Cundoctors like,
Copper don't come cheap. It's adviceable to run an
electrical system at a PF approching Unity to have stable
power system.
