Why capacitor bank does not require in DG Set?

Answer Posted / sudhir purandare

DG set is a power source. Capacitor bank is required for a
load to maintain the power factor i.e. reactive power. The
alternators are designed for 0.8 pf. if the load pf is lower
than this value, it will overload alternator. under such
conditions it is necessary to install a capacitor bank.
