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.

Answer Posted / k.prakashchandra

You should realise that when there is no load on
transformer, the pf is almost zero
