WhY PF low at Time of PT Missing in HT Meter..

Answer / abdul salam

Power factor is the quotient of KW to KVA, in this
perticular case when PT is missing in one phase then the
voltage which is seen by the meter will increase as a
result KVA will increase and hence low PF.

WhY PF low at Time of PT Missing in HT Meter..

Answer / dave.vimal

When One phase PT missing. HT consumer is always used three
phase load . This time consumer is not using load but
capacitor bank is on . so power factor is low and lead

I try to check the three phase voltage in multimeter, in 125A isolator switch incommer. first i touch R phase, and then i touch Y phase using multimeter, the moment i touched, it blasts and that moment i got blindness. multimeter selector position is correct(750V AC MODE AND RED PROBE WASS IN v AND BLACK PROBE WASS IN COM. MODE. COULD ANYBODY GIVE ANSWER FOR THIS TO AVOID FURTHER ACCIDENTS PLEASE?
