We have 2 Nos. Transformer with the capacity of 2000KVA and
1250 KVA and currently using only one 2000KVA T/R during
operational hours while non- operational hous 1250 KVA T/R
also used to reduce T & D losses. Similarly, 2 capacitor
bank of 500KVAR and 300 KVAR also installed to balance
reactive power. Now problem is around 1000 KW load PF is
not maintaning 0.99 as 350 KVAR capacitor is in healty
condtion. Now the PF is maintain 0.95 to 0.96.

Answer Posted / arvind

You please check out the location of the capacitor banks
means whether it is away from the load or not if it is away
from tha load then power losses will be there and affects
the power factor.
secondly, if the load (1000kw) is variable means motor,
then it is difficult to get power factor 0.99.
