for power factor correction kVAR

for lasers Joules

if you make them with capacitors and know the voltage and frequency you can figure either from microfarads

energy =joules=kg-meters=watt -seconds= (C * e^2)/2

var = X(c) * e

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 size breaker do you need to install a capacitor bank?

The size of the breaker needed for a capacitor bank typically depends on the total capacitance and the system voltage. As a general rule, the breaker should be rated to handle the inrush current during capacitor energization, which can be significantly higher than the steady-state current. It's advisable to consult the manufacturer's specifications for the capacitor bank and adhere to local electrical codes, ensuring that the breaker is also rated for the specific application and environment. A common practice is to select a breaker rated at 125% of the maximum continuous current expected from the bank.

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.

Will a 370 VAC motor run using a 440 VAC capacitor?

If the motor is rated at 370 v and the supply is 370 v, the capacitor needs to be rated at 370 or more volts, so a 440 v capacitor will be OK.
