Answer / asif.k64@hotmail.com
It improves over all efficiency of the system and equipments.
Saves Up to 5 to 8% consumption chargers.
avoid over heating of cables, motors etc.
Their are various ways to improve power factor, if detuned
capacitor and filters are used, it can reduce harmonics at a
minimum level (Harmonics are usually generated due to non
linear load like computer, servers, telecom equipments etc.)

Answer / niharika
Ideally power factor should be unity to have good efficiency and minimum losses.
if pf is higher than unity, current increases thereby increases losses (heat) and reduces efficiency..and may damage the conductors due to heating as current exceeds the rating value..
| Is This Answer Correct ? | 11 Yes | 12 No |
Power factor should be Unity.
If higher or lower than this then losses are varies.
Losses increases with power factor value.

How much allowable difference current between on three phases Dear sir, We have a 1870 KW HT motor, 11 Kv supply,FLA-120A,2870 rpm,2-pole squirrel cage induction Motor.And stator is connected in star connection with Liquid resistance stater to limit the starting current.It has coupled with Centrifugal air compressor.My question is it is loading 73% of FLA taking R-phase 86.7 A, Y-phase-85.4A,B-phase- 78.3A.why the B phase current is that much of difference.Is it allowable, or any one tell me how much allowable current.If any method to calculate.
