A source supplies power to the following three loads connected in parallel: (1) a lighting load drawing 10 kW, (2) an induction motor drawing 10 kVA at 0.90 power factor lagging, and (3) a synchronous motor operating at 10 hp, 85% efficiency and 0.95 power factor leading (1 hp 0.746 kW). Determine the real, reactive, and apparent power delivered by the source. Also, draw the source power triangle.

. Determine the capacitance value that, when placed in parallel with this load, would produce a unity power factor. Assume that the source is 230 V at 60 Hz. The Q shown is a positive Inductive reactive power, which would have to be “offset” by the same value of Reactive Capacitance Power.
