Answer / jitesh kotecha
induction motor is an inductive device and we know that in
inductive circuit current lags behind voltage due to the
inductive reactance of the motor. so that the phase angle
between voltage and current will increase. and the cosine
angle i.e. P.F. will decreases.to improve the p.f we have
to supply leading Kvar to the system. it is possible by
different way. either use capacitor bank which will supply
leading kvar to the syswtem and overall lagging kvar will
decreases and if we see the power triangle then the angle
between KW and KVA will decrease so that the p.f. will
improve. second method is to run synchronous motor on
leading p.f.in parallel with the system.

Answer / karthikeyan
the above answer saying synchronous motor can be used but
we never see a synchronous installed near indution motor.
We always uses static capacitors to improve the overall PF.
why because only in High end generating stations and
substations the synchronous motor can be used to imrove
system PF. for medium and small loads we can go for static
capacitor bank.

Bcoz the IM will drwa an Lagging Current..
We can use a APFC Bank to maintain it.

Answer / umesh
induction motor have inductive materials which lags behand
the the voltage,that's way power factor decreases it
connected to induction motor,
PF can improve the power factor by connecting the
syncronous motor parralel to the incution motor ,
Syncronous motor running cost is costly, it will be run in
idle

In a transformer, the hysteresis and eddy current losses depend upon 1.load current 2.maximum flux density in core 3.type of lamination 4.supply frequency The correct statements are (a) 1 and 3 (b) 2 and 3 (c) 1 and 4 (d) 2 and 4
In a power conditoining unit (inverter) of a solar plant when we measure the d.c. current fed by different strings of solar plates to inverter, the current in the negative wire is less almost by 1 ampere to the current in its positive wire say current in positive wire 5 A , then current in negative wire of the same string is 4 A. Since the current entering should be equal to current leaving then why the current is noticably less in negative wire.
