why we r used APFC Panel in industrial area.when P.F. low
then wat will be the effect in our system?
Answer Posted / rajeev
APFC Panel is used to maintain the power factor near unity
by adding capacitance across the load.
P = V x I x Power factor.
100 = 100 x 1 x 1 ( Idle case)
If power factor decrease to 0.1
100 = 100 x 10 x 0.1
Here we can observe that current in circuit increased
from 1 amp to 10 amp with decrease in power factor from 1
to 0.1
This is the effect of low power factor in system. Due to
this increased current higher rating of cables , breakers
etc required. also due to this increased current we require
more power generated as MVA demand shoots up.

During Testing of Maintenance Free Earthing, How deep should be the Spikes of Earth Test Meter should be inserted in the soil(one spike is 15 Meter & Other spike is 30 Mtrs away from the Main Earth Electrode. Because, recently, we observed that when spike is inserted 3-4 Inch in the earth- results are better, If spike is inserted 1 feet deep than results are increasing.
