the powerfactor actuator are available in market. Use them with ADC to switch required capacitors. I hope you can work out with this

How do you install capacitor bank?

It depends what it's for. If it's for power-factor improvement, then it is normally connected in parallel with the load.


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).


What is the effect on the supply current if the capacitor removed?

It depends on how the capacitor is connected and whether the supply voltage is a.c. or d.c. Assuming you are talking about a power-factor improvement capacitor (connected in parallel with an inductive load, supplied with a.c.), then the supply current will reduce.

Do capacitor devices actually save power?

Your question should read, "Do capacitive devices actually save energy?" Power is simply the rate at which you use energy, so you cannot 'save' power. And the answer to your question is no.Capacitor banks are used to improve the power factor of industrial loads. Power-factor improvement acts to reduce the load current, thus reducing the amount of copper required in the supply system conductors, transformers, etc. Power-factor improvement, on the other hand, has no effect upon the operation of the load. The energy used by the load after power-factor improvement is exactly the same as it was before.Power-factor improvement only really applies to industrial loads, because utility companies will financially penalise industrial consumers who allow their power factor to fall below an agreed figure. Power-factor improvement will have absolutely no effect whatsoever on residential loads, so companies trying to sell you 'capacitor devices' that promise to 'save you money' are scam merchants!


Why capacitor is used in tube light circuit?

For power factor improvement so that the KVA demand is reduced.


Is a power factor capacitor different from a regular capacitor?

A power factor capacitor is a power capacitor. I'm not sure what you mean by "regular". There are different types, made from different materials that have better/worse characteristics than others depending on the application. You could use any high power capacitor for power factor correction, as long as it is sized correctly for the load and voltage.
