what is the disadvantage of leading power factor...why can't
we use it (pf=0) for a long period of time?
Answer Posted / romroxmal
It's unpractical to have a leading power factor in an
electrical distribution system in general because majority
of your loads especially motors and some rotating machines
are partly inductive loads. Just keep the power factor
lagging like 85 to 95% PF by automatic capacitor banks.
Efficiency and life expectancy of those said loads mentioned
will be diminished.

A commercial Building is designed with 14th floor levels with indoor substation of three phase transformer with rated capacity of 1000 Kva.The transformer delivered 65% of its rated capacity at 0.67 power factor lagging.Because of low power factor, the power customer was penalized and certain cost was charged accordingly based on every point percentage lower than 85%.This situation may repeatedly happen on the succeding energy bills of power customer.The power customer is desired to improve its historical power factor of 0.67 lagging and no further penalty be impose by the local power company on the next bill.
