my motor rating is 800HP, 128Amps, 3.3kV. What is capaitor
bank i can use for PF improvement to 0.990?

Answer Posted / michael

theres is no need of current power factor
we can compute in by the formula
P = sq.root of 3 EI pf
pf = .816

using pf correction
KVARcap = KWmotor(tanƟ1 - tanƟ2)
Ɵ1 = old pf angel
Ɵ2 = new pf angel
KVARcap = 337.731kvar

Is This Answer Correct ?    1 Yes 1 No
