question

A factory draws a lagging load of 2000 kW at a power factor of 0.6 from 6000 V mains. A synchronous capacitor is purchased to raise the overall power factor to unity. Assuming that the synchronous capacitor losses are 275 kW, calculate: (a) Originalkilovarsof lagging load. (b)kvarsof correction needed to bring the power factor to unity. (c)kVArating of synchronous capacitor and its power factor.
