In the case starter, the capacitors are often controlled by
the main contactor which is also controlling the motor.
This is because the capacitance and the inductance of the
motor form a resonant circuit. While the motor is connected
to the supply, there is no problem. Once the motor is
disconnected from the supply, it begins to decelerate. As it
decelerates, it generates voltage at the frequency at which
it is rotating. If the capacitive reactance equals the
inductive reactance, i.e. unity power factor, we have
resonance. If the motor is critically corrected (pf = 1) or
over corrected, then as the motor slows, the voltage it is
generating will pass through the resonant frequency set up
between the motor and the capacitors. If this happens, major
problems can occur. There will be very high voltages
developed across the motor terminals and capacitors causing
insulation damage, high resonant currents can flow, and
transient torque's generated can cause mechanical equipment
failure.

The unity power factor means the angle b/w voltage and current is unity.As a practical it is not possible for motors because motor is inductive.For an theory if motor is at unit power factor the speed decreases.

If a capacitor bank is having rating 750kvar for 6.6kv. Then for 3.3kv how much will be the rating of capacitor bank.

I have a generator of 300kw.400V,50hz . what is means can i assume the load Red Phase with Neutral 300kw.Yellow phase with neutral 300kw and Blue with neutral also 300Kw. or - red with neutral 100kw same as yelloe and blue phase also giving 100kw with neutral respectively

We have a 33/11kv switchyard having 12.5 MVA power transformer. We export & import power through this transformer. When we export power, the PF will be depend on GRID PF & when we import power the PF will be depend on our load PF. but the problem is that,when neither we export nor import but our 33KV vCB is in close position,our meter read the power factor 0.14 to 0.25 at that moment. So how can be we improve the power factor at that moment.
