What the capacitor Current formula?, For 1 KVAr how amps
its required? for using the KVAr for boosting the PF Design
Calculation.( Eg: for 30 KVAr required how many KW?)

Answer Posted / harry

The question requires more details.
First the "K" represents kilo or 1000.
The real power (kW) can be thought of as the x-axis and the
reactive power (kVar) from inductance or capacitance can be
thought of as the y-axis. The hypotenuse is the
Apparent power (KVA). The relationship of Real to apparent
power gives the Power Factor, where a power factor of 1.0
simply means that you only have real power, no reactive
power. The leading and lagging VARs from capacitance and
inductance, respectively can be added numerically since
they are on the same axis.
To ask, how muck kVars are required for a given kW doesn’t
make a lot of sense because you need to include the desired
power factor.
