Shunt Capacitor : Rating, Connection, Advantages & Its
A shunt capacitor is extensively used to transmit reactive power to loads in the main distribution. These capacitors supply an economical reactive power to meet up reactive power necessities for different loads. The transmission, as well as distribution lines, operates at lagging PF (power factor) to reduce line losses & enhance voltage regulation.
What is a Capacitor Bank : Working and Its Calculation
Reactive power compensation is the other outcome of improvement in the power factor. Installing inductive loads on the load side demands more reactive power. Since inductive loads consume reactive power for creating the required magnetic flux. More the inductive nature of the load more is the requirement of reactive power.
