Answer by True or False • The addition of a series capacitor bank helps to improve the power factor and to compensate the reactive power, so the current drawn by the system load and capacitor is decreased and thus the losses and voltage drop are all reduced. • Harmonic currents increase the power factor, even when there is no phase angle between voltage and current • If the user consumes an active power P more than 75% of the reactive power Q, in addition to the electricity bill he must pay a penalty to the utility. • If a customer had a power factor in his installation less than 80%, he must pay a penalty to the utility • If 60% of current is converted into a useful work, the power factor is 0.4 • For sinusoidal (non-distorted, no Harmonics) currents, the displacement power factor is the same as the apparent power factor.

A 240 kVA synchronous motor of rated apparent power consumes 95 kW of active power of the power grid. And it is possible to adjust it so that by working with this same active power, it compensates the power factor by providing reactive power (i.e., appearing with a capacitive component). How can you get this? What is the maximum reactive power that it can provide?
