what is the disadvantage of lagging power factor & why ?

Answer Posted / saqkhu

The disadv of lag pf is that it causes the voltage regulation
to increase towards maximum value due to which the o/p volt
decreases.
volt reg= (V no load - V full load)
= IR cos phy - IX sin phy
in case of lag pf the current is lagging i.e I<-phy
so , the volt reg
= IR cos phy + IX sin phy is more

If any HVDC line is going with positive & negative(the negative usually have return path of current with earthing electrode). Now the question is if this HVDC earthed electrode which is using as return path and earthed any nearby 400kv or 220kv AC substation equipments. which will be the impact of this on AC substation & its equipment, how severe may be this and what should be the minimum distance require between HVDC earthed electrode and AC substation equipments? It's really an high engineering level question...Dare to answer and increase your knowledge.
