How to Improve Power Factor in Power System Network by Capacitor II Analysis using ETAP

[@rashidsmart9431]

How did you fine the value of Qc you intered?. basically, in etap, there is a method should be used to compute the value of Qc and it should not be assumed.

[@SmartEducare]

Yes, it should be calculated definitely. I have assumed here for the explanation purpose only. There is manual calculation also to get the Qc value..

Ya I see that@@SmartEducare

What the Power factor shall be set in Lump Load?

[@SmartEducare]

It depends on individual loads power factor.. To get the correct power factor of lump load, you need to split the individual loads into two parts i.e real & reactive power. Then add all the R values and add the X values separately. Finally get the correct power factor of lump load from this R&X values... hope it's clear, thanks ..

[@rashidsmart9431]

Actually, you need to use ''Optimal capacitor placement'' to find the value of Qc which is required to improve the PF of N.W.

[@SmartEducare]

Thanks, you are absolutely right! For the sake of example, I have assumed the capacitor value only, but it needs to be calculated definitely before putting in ETAP in practical scenario.

How can the system PF improve power system voltage stability?

[@SmartEducare]

It is covered in a separate video called voltage stability ,,, will be posted shortly,, stay tuned!!
