What the capacitor Current formula?, For 1 KVAr how amps
its required? for using the KVAr for boosting the PF Design
Calculation.( Eg: for 30 KVAr required how many KW?)

Answer Posted / 9561354591

** Capacitor Current formula is

I= kVAr/kV/1.732 ( for 3 ph capacitor )

**for 1 kVar capacitor... suppose voltage is 440 volts than,

I=1/0.440/1.732
I=1.31 Amps.

For all your information,generally 1 kVAr capacitor takes
0.5 watts...henceforth..

30 kvar capacitor required kw=30X0.5=15 watts and is 0.015kw

thanks!!!!!!!
