why not use capacitor in Dg sets.

Answer / raj
No, we can add capacitor till pf=0.95 it will reduce the
line current so the losses and heating but it should not go
to leading side and if dg set running in parallel then pf
should be kept 0.9 so that stability and load sharing
should be proper.even i have used capacitors in dg so many
times successfully without trouble.

Answer / meeran
the DG Designed constant power factor .8 no need capacitor
output load always constant if we add capacitor it will we
additional load and it will not use for power factor
improvement.

Answer / parminder singh
The generator for d.g set is designed at 0.8 power factor.
our load is always between 0.8 - 1.0 p.f. so if we connect
capacitor it will overload the dg set.

Answer / ajit
capacitor is not use in dg sets because in dg sets power
factor already disign by manufacturer acording to your
requarment or type of electrical load.mostely dg sets
desion on .8 powr factor

Why we are mostly using a single 3-phase transformer instead of three 1-phase transformers?
WHEN SINGLE PHASE SUPPLY AS 220V, WHY THE 3 PHASE- 4 WIRE MEASURED AS 440 VOLTS INSTEAD OF 660 VOLTS (220 VOLTS PER PHASE i.e 220x3 = 660 volts ).
