How to calculate PF capactors for a connected load?..

Answer / g parsaram reddy

capacitor bank selection base on the connected load

ex - 500kw load formula is kvar = kw ( tan cos-1pf) - (tan cos-1pf)there is power factor taken lower and higher valu , ex2 kvar= 250(tan cos-1 0.8)- (tan cos-1 0.96)step2 kvar=250(tan36.36-tan16.26) than 250(0.74-0.29) than250(0.45)than kvar=114.5this is required
