Answer Posted / atif anwar
As we all are familiar that equivalent capacitance of a delta bank is more than the equivalent capacitance of a series capacitor bank and so
more the capacitance = more the reactive power it supply
&
since capacitor bank's mere purpose is to supply reactive
power, delta connection will serve better.
it wld be more clear with expression:-
In delta, phase current=line current/1.732
capacitance required in parallel is 1/3 of capacitance
required in series
The effective capacitive
reactance is 3 times more when connected in parallel than in
series. So, to improve the p.f.

As we use capacitor bank in 3ph ckt to improve PF, can we use capacitor in single ph domestric use, in house we have Fan,Mixer,electric cooker,iron,tube choke they also lag the system,because it is inductive load. if it is possible to improve PF of single ph system-- if yes- type of capacitor to be used,connection diagram, working in detail. if no-- list it.
