What is the reactive power and how to control the reactive
power in power plant
Answer Posted / muthukumar
We can control the power factor by switch on and off the
capacitor. Reactive power is nothing but capacitive power.
by using capacitive power continuosly the winding, core
gets heat and it will damage the equipment.
KVA= KW+KVAr
KVA---- Apparent Power
KW----- Active Power
KVAR--- Reactive Power
Reactive Power is full of losses. If we use any electrical
equipment automatically reactive power obtained due to core
losses and iron losses

Transformer how to maintaince a check b check c check d check
I have a current transformer with 1 main reading meter with transformer outside the building and a control panel having 5 CT reading meters with black round coils inside the building. I want to know, A) when current pass through the Transformers, will the current be reduced or be the same and after that B) when current pass through the CT meters with black round coils, will the current be reduced or be the same. C) in the above process will the reading of the main meter be same or different, from the total reading of all the 5 CT meters.
Could the power factor on electrical system can affect the registration of the kwhr meter or the CT/PT?
