Best Answer

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!

How do you calculate aggregate saving?

You can calculate aggregate saving by using the power of compounding. The earlier you start saving, the faster you can aggregate or compound your existing savings in the bank.

Control diagrame of a capacitor bank and why you use capacitor banks?

---- Capacitor banks used to improve power factor(lagging) of a circuit:: This is necessary since it causes saving in power and electricity bill in following ways: 1) As p.f rises, circuit currnt decreases and hence I2R losses reduce 2) Var consumption reduces There is no tool provided here to draw the ckt diagram:: U take on PFC(power factor correction bus), then connect switch fuse, then HRC fuse, then Contactor, then overload relay and finally the capacitor bank


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 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.
