Relations between Reactive power,power factor and penalty Power Factor penalty is spelled out in the contract between the Power Company and Industrial or Commercial customer with large three phase loads. If the contract calls for 85% Power Factor, once the customer’s power factor falls below 85%, the Power Company bills the Customer according to the agreed penalty rates. Industrial loads are mostl...

ZDDQ Engineers give an example for reference, An Alternator is supplying a load of 650 kW at Power factor 0.65. What size of Capacitor banks (kVAR) is required to raise the Power Factor to unity (1 or >0.95)? And how many more kW can the alternator supply for the same kVA loading when P.F improved. Supplying kW = 650 kW Original P.F = Cosθ1 = 0.65 Final P.F = Cosθ2 = 1 θ1 = Cos-1 = (0.65) = 49°...
