in a induction motor if we put capacitor across it will the
power factor of the motor will improve? if yes how

Answer Posted / hardik vyas

It depends how is it connected. normally for 3-phase motor
a three phase capacitor bank is connected as a load with
across motor which in turn improves the power factor of
system.
