If there is unit power factor in a power house and a capacitor bank used in a factory at resistive load . In this case, will there leading power factor in power house across that factory.

Answer Posted / prasanna raj

I dnt thnk so. Most of the loads used in power house are of Inductive only which have lagging power factor. If in case capacitors banks are used, Capacitors inspite of having leading power factor discharge & drop the power factor once the loads are connected to capacitor banks. I think it will not maintain leading power factor once capacitor banks are connected to resistive loads (in case) but will be lesser or nearer to Unity power factor.
