Normal power is the multiplication of current to combination of resistive and reactive or capacitive load. From the vector sum of Apparent power minus real power we can get reactive power(KVAr), which is basically lagging power due to reactive load. This will be the exact rating of capacitor bank. You can find it by cos $ of apparent power.

How do you calculate Kwh saving after installing capacitor bank?
Adding a capacitor bank makes absolutely no difference whatsoever to the amount of energy consumed (in kilowatt hours). The capacitor bank might reduce the load current, but this does not affect the amount of energy consumed. Anyone who tries to sell you a 'capacitor bank' in order to save you energy is selling a SCAM!
What is the use of rvt in capacitor bank?
Use of rvt in capacitor bank
How many current drawn in 400 kvar capacitor bank?
It depends upon at how much voltage level 400 kvar capacitor bank is used.
What is the correct cable size for the 550 KVAR capacitor bank?
Cable sizing is based on amperage of the load. The rating of the capacitor bank and the voltage at which it operated need to be stated to give an answer.
Advantages of bank capacitor?
Capacitor banks can improve the power factor if the load is leading, which is unusual. Typically in substations capacitor banks are employed to reduce over voltage.

How do you calculate capacitor bank capacity?
It is calculated by knowing what the reactive power is that has to be countered.See related links below.

Why capacitor bank using reeactor?
Series reactors may be used in switching in capacitor banks. These are used to minimize the transient voltage spikes on the system resulting from switching in a capacitor bank.
Purpose of capacitor bank on a sub-station electrical room?
The primary reason for a capacitor bank in an electrical substation is for power factor correction. There may also be some secondary purpose for the capacitor bank but the primary reason is power factor correction.
What are example of capacitive load?
capacitor bank
How many current drawn in 400 kvar capacitor bank?
It depends upon at how much voltage level 400 kvar capacitor bank is used.
How does a plug in PFC differ from a capacitor bank?
It doesn't ?
How you calculate the resistance of a capacitor?
There's nothing to calculate. Until it fails and must be replaced, the resistance ofa capacitor is infinite. A measurement with a typical ohmmeter will show that thecapacitor is open.
How can be determined the rating of capacitor bank?
If you are talking about a capacitor bank used for power-factor improvement, then it is rated in reactive volt amperes (var). Otherwise, it is rated in farads (F).
