what is the effect if we add capacitor on DG supply, it has
any loss or benefit.
Answer Posted / arun
Alternators are normally designed at 0.8 pf lag.It is not
advisable to run DG with capacitor banks switched ON.But as
you approach to maximum loading the winding temp.may
increase leading to tripping if cooling of alternator is
not efficient.In such a case you can put ON a few capacitor
banks & monitor the pf.Maintain pf somewhere between 0.85
to 0.90 lag.Result is the current drops and so is the
alternator temperature.This we have practically done with
our DGs.

How to use earthing on shipments.
Dear all, I just want to ask an expert on this forum for some insights. For the magnetic balance test, when applied voltage on a Delta-Star transformer e.g. Dyn11, the following relationships apply for HV side: 1. H1-H2 = H2-H3 H3-H1 2. H2-H3 = H3-H1 H1-H2 3. H3-H1 = H1-H2 H2-H3 For the LV side also: 4. X1-X0 = X2-X0 X3-X0 5. X2-X0 = X3-X0 X1-X0 6. X3-X0 = X1-X0 X2-X0 Is there a similar pattern for Y-d, Y-Y, D-d? And how about Y-z, D-z, Z-y transformers? I've tested a YNzn5 transformer and for LV side I don't see the pattern. In this particular case I got for LV side the following (see values below): H1-H0 H2-H0 H3-H0 X0-X1 X0-X2 X0-X3 128.0 119.9 7.2 29.2 13.3 15.8 70.7 128.4 59.2 23.4 22.0 3.6 7.2 120.1 128.1 13.4 29.3 15.8 What is the relationship here for LV? For row 1 I see the relationship, for row 3 I also see but it's shifted, but for row 2 I don't see such relationship. Any suggestions, answers, someone?
