What is PF? Formula for calculating PF in HT side?

Answer Posted / nagesh.patwari

It is ratio of True Real Power to Apparent power.
Cos phi = KW/KVA = R/Z = True Real Active Power / Apparent power

KW = sq root of 3 x V x i x Cos Phi

hence cos phi = KW / ( sq root of 3 x V x I)

following are the questions asked in interviews: 1) Considering the short circuit fault, which switchgear is preferable, SFU OR MCCB? Which operates faster? whicg one is popular in Indian Market and why? 2)Define SCPD. What is type2 coodination? 3)Why the contactor rating is higher for the fuseless selection than for fuse selection? whether the ratinf of SFU or MCCB remains the same in both the cases? 4)If the HP rating is known then can you calculate the ratings of L.V Switchgear(SFU/MCCB, contactor, OLR) without using the selection chart?
