Answer / zahid

Kindly note that capacitor banks are usually installed at
distribution sides not generating ends. This is due to the
fact that capacitor banks provides reactive power to the
network to improve power factor. If we implement capacitor
bank at HT side we have to increase cable cross sectional
area and Trafo copper winding. If you want specs then email
