what is pf. how to calculate capacitor bank value to
maintain unity pf.

Answer Posted / vekuva

KVAR= KW(TAN PHI 1 - TAN PHI 2 )

WHERE PHI 1 = EXISTING POWER FACTOR ANGLE i.e., COS^¯1(p.f1)
PHI 2 = REQUIRED POWER FACTOR ANGLE i.e., COS^¯1(p.f2)
p.f 1 = EXISTING POWER FACTOR
p.f 2 = REQUIRED POWER FACTOR

Is This Answer Correct ?    5 Yes 2 No
