Current calculation for 200 kvar capacitor


CAPACITOR VOLTAGE CALCULATION

#System Voltage (MV) : 433V (WITH +- 5%)
#Voltage drop across (Maximum) : 433 x -5% = 21.65V
Capacitors working : 411.35 Volts.

CAPACITOR CURRENT CALCULATION
KVAR Calculation at 433 Volts.
KVAR 433 Volt (433)2
= ------------ 200KVAR
(411.35)2

187489
= ----------- 200 KVAR
169208

= 1.1 x 200 KVAR = 221.59

= 221.59 KVAR

Current for 221.56 KVAR at 433 V = 221.59
------------------------ x 1000
433 x 1.732 x 0.6

= 492 Amps.
