An example of how to calculate the capacity of reactive power (kVAr)? An Motor is supplying a load of 700 kW at a P.F (Power factor) of 0.65. What size of Capacitor in kVAr is required to raise the P.F (Power Factor) to unity (1)? And how many more kW can the motor supply for the same kVA loading when P.F improved. Supplying kW = 700 kW Original P.F = Cosθ1 = 0.65 Final P.F = Cosθ2 = 1 θ1 = C...

ZDDQ-SVG Static Var Generator is an electronic reactive power compensation system, for both capacitive and inductive power. It has the same operating principle as an active filter; the SVG injects a current in the opposite direction to counteract the installation's non-useful power (inductive and capacitive), thus ensuring that the target cosϕ is achieved. ZDDQ SVG instantly compensates and adjust...

Power Factor Control refers to the management and maintenance of an acceptable power factor in electrical systems. Power factor is the ratio of real power (kW) to apparent power (kVA) in an electrical circuit. A low power factor indicates that the circuit is inefficient and requires more current to deliver a given amount of power. This results in increased energy losses, higher electricity bills, ...

First of all, the operation of inductive equipment must establish a magnetic field (such as a motor). Since the instantaneous start-up of large equipment requires the power grid to provide a large amount of Reactive Current to establish a magnetic field, the voltage of the system will be greatly reduced at the moment of equipment startup, causing other equipment to be protected or unable to operat...
