( Re: WHAT SHOULD BE THE RATING OF MCCB FOR 415V,3Ph,50KVAR
CAPACITOR BANK
Answer
# 1 The capacitor current would be kvar x 1000 / (415 x
sqrt3). This would be 70a approx. The MCCB selected should
have *atleast 1.4 times this current i.e. 1.4 x 70= 98. So
you should choose at least 100 A mccb.)
regarding to this answer,i would like to know why the
current have to times 1.4 to get the right amphere for the
mccb.hows the formula to get the 1.4??tq

Answer Posted / silu pattanayak
While switching the Capacitor, a charging current of 1.4 times the rated value will be taken by the capacitor due to the "transient" phenomena arising during switching. Therefore, a factor 1.4 is used as safety factor to avoid unnecessary tripping during switching.

I have a small system with two motors that are running on 380 vac, 60 hz. These motors are expensive and I usally get them from Brazil. I am adding another motor to the system, but I want to purchase a 480 vac, 60 hz motor to use. It will be on a VFD that is rated fro 380 thru 480. Is this posible and will I have to use a larger motor and derate it?
