Power Factor Correction Sizing

Calculate the required capacitor bank rating (kVAR) to raise plant power factor and avoid utility penalties.

Purpose & Calculation Breakdown (India)

Purpose of this Tool: Raise electrical network power factors to improve grid efficiency and eliminate reactive power surcharges.

• Capacitor kVAR Calculation:Q_{c(kVAR)} = P_{kW} \times \left( \tan(\arccos(PF_{old})) - \tan(\arccos(PF_{new})) \right)
