Question
Q1.
Two loads Z,
10 + j20 N, Z2 = 100 – j270, N are connected across a Vs=400Vrms, 50 Hz, source
as shown in fig. 1.
a)
Find the total real power, the reactive power and the power factor at the source, and the total
current in uncompensated case (i.e. when no compensation capacitor C is connected to the loads).
b)
Find the capacitance of the shunt compensation capacitor C to be connected across the loads to
improve the overall power factor to 0.866 lagging.
