how and why are capacitors are used to improve powerfactor?
Answer Posted / guest
Generally, poor power facor means that the current lag
behind voltage because of inductive loads. Capacitors
supply leading current with respect to the voltage which
cancels out the effect of inductive loads. Thus the source
side views the loads as purely resistive one. ence,
capacitors are used to improve power factor

hi....I am from india..i have completed my engineering in electrical and electronics field with 58.4% and my IELTS score is 5.5 bands....Recently i received my I-20 in computer and information science from Troy university in Alabama.On 18th i have a visa interview can u please tell me what type of questions i have to answer ??????
How is operate breaker failure scheme in substation
I have motor 1500 HP and , 4160 V , 60 HZ , then i need the rating of transformer which can feed that motor ??
Why synchronous motor is used in power factor improvement,dc series in lift
For refrigerators the motor current is raised beyond its rating on both conditions when the voltage of the system is more(say 270v) than the rated voltage(220v) as well as when the voltage of system is less(say 160v) than normal voltageof 220v, why explain?
