Answer / ps win
The drop in voltage from the origin of the circuit to any point in the circuit should not be more than 4% of the nominal voltage. I would like to suggest you that you should re-size the cable.

Friend
You can either shift ur DG near to ur office, or u change
the size of the cable connecting from DG terminal to switch
board, preferably with a copper cable. Present cable size
is very low compared to the distance and the load taken by
the cable, and hence u have a voltage drop of 40V.

Add capacitors in load side, which improves your PF as well
as voltage.

I hv a question regarding power factor improvement just after transformer. I request you to reply me plzz. thank you sir. My friend has a small unit of fabrication. in his factory the main load is a welding machine, lathe machine, grinding machine. this load is not continuous type. now our electricity board has installed 16 KVA, 11000/433 V transformer for our factory. In the energy meter (trivector meter) at LV side of transformer, i hv seen power factor value of 0.15 only when only 3 KW load was flowing. Further electricity board has suggested to install 4 KVAR capacitor at LV side after energy meter. Now my question is that if we permanantly install and switch on 4 KVAR capacitor after energy meter, during some load on transformer and also without any load on transformer, wht will be the power factor shown in energy meter?i dont want to get any penalty by electricity board, so plz suggest me if i can permanantly install and switch on the 4 kvar capacitor or not at LV side of transformer just after energy meter? Thank you again and awaiting for ur positive reply soon.
