what is pf. how to calculate capacitor bank value to
maintain unity pf.

Answer Posted / nilesh kumar singh

Power Factor is defined as the ratio of Real power and
Apparent power.

for calculating Capacitor bank value the formula is :

kVAr = KW {tan(cos^-1 Phi e) - tan(Cos^-1 Phi d)}

Where - Phi e = existing Power Factor.
Phi d = Desired Power Factor.

Is This Answer Correct ?    101 Yes 8 No

how does the terminal voltage of transmission lines increase when a capacitor is connected???? This happens not only in transmission lines but also in all circuits. How??? When a capacitor is connected in a transmission line, capacitor also takes energy from the same supply. But how is it able to increase the terminal voltage??? Practically What sequence of events happen during increase in voltage???
