Why not implimenting power factor in Diesel generator

Answer Posted / ravi

In case we correct the existing P.F. in case of DG set by
putting capacitor panel across DG set, then there is no
harm until the cicuit draws inductive or lagging P.F. . But
in case it starts drawing leading P.F. due to addition of
excessive capacitors across D.G. set then the output
terminal voltage would be higher than the induced voltage.
so it is not desirable to operate cap. panel across DG set.
