In industries Power factor is maintained by installing a
suitable KVAR bank, How is the PF maintained for domestic
use, where is the capacitor bank connected

Answer / bijay
For domestic supply ( 1 Phase) the PF variation is
comparatively low.
It is maintained at 0.95 by the Supply authority
(electricity board).
Capacitor Bank is located at the main
receiving/Distribution Station.

Answer / raj
MAIN THING THE PF IS MAINTAIN FOR INDUCTIVE LOADS . IN
DOMESTIC WE HAVING THE RESISTIVE LOADS . BUT IN WE USING
FAN MOTORS AND SINGLE PHASE MOTORS ETC WE KNOW IN EVERY
SINGLE PHASE MOTOR WE CONNECT THE CAPACITOR IN SERIES OR
PARELLEL.SO PF IS MAINTAINING.

Answer / rahul
we provided capacitor banks in the substations and
monitoring the variations in the load for all areas were
the loads distributed its done by with the help of aload
