Why capacitor bank is not neccessery to switch on,pls answ me with formula..

Answer / m raviteja

capacitor is static device which can store the energy in
the form of eletric field, Q=CV. We can switch on and off
the capacitor bank depends on the load. Normally capacitors
in the industries are dependent on power factor.
from power equation p=1.732vicosphi.

Why capacitor bank is not neccessery to switch on,pls answ me with formula..

Answer / guest

normally the capacitors are switched on to bring the power factor nearer to unity i.e 1.
if load(kw)is almost equal to generator capacity (kva)or if power factor is between 0.9 to 1 we wont Switch on the capacitors.
capacitors are rated in kvar(kilo volt amp reactive )
apparent power=kvar=sqrt(3)*V*I*sin phi

my question is that....few days ago i had installed a three phase motor starter for an electric saw.the motor will run and make the hydraulic pressure which will be goes to pressure cylender by up and down lever.two number of limitswitches are also installed on cylinder for safety of motor.now when the arm of cylinder reaches to the upper or lower limit it will cut the motor's line.and motor will be stop.now wana know that what will i do that motor runs continue after the limitswitch cut it down but it shold not be made any pressure.pls answer me in brief.
