What happens when capacitor KVAr rating is much bigger than the required rating?

You end up with a leading power factor. The Kvar meter will run backwards.

Can you use a higher voltage rating capacitor with the same uf rating?
Yes, it will work fine. The downside is that it might cost more than one of the lower voltage rating, or that it might be physically larger. A capacitor voltage rating is a maximum, so any lower voltage is also acceptable.
What does the volt on a capacitor mean?
the voltage number on the capacitor indicates that the capacitor can with stand to that particular voltage across it.generally during design, the value of capacitor will be selected in such a way that this voltage rating should be double than what really we get in the circuit
The air conditioning work in 230 volt why the compressor use capacitors of 370 and 440 volts if he only need mfd to start?
An AC capacitor is composed of two DC capacitors with the foil ends (-) connected together and the center ends (+) connected to the outside. There are variations to the connections. Each capacitor has to have the voltage rating required by the application -- and there are two capacitors in series in an AC capacitor. A 230V AC capacitor, depending on manufacturing design standard, may not be suitable for starting a 230V air conditioner.
How do you decide KVAR rating of capacitor bank?
Generally the capacitor rating of a bank are decided on the load factor.ie higher the KVAR higher the capacity.KVAR is the reactive power in which load angle differs with the load variation.If we know load factor multiply it by the sine angle which gives us the capacity of the cpapcity of the load bank.

Is there any tornado bigger than an F5?
There are theoretical categories beyond F5 but none of theme have ever been used. Since F5 damage is total destruction there is no real way of rating a tornado higher than F5. Also, a tornado's rating is not dependent on its size. So a bigger tornado does not necessarily get a higher rating.
How does the size of an electrolyte capacitor vary with its capacitance value?
A: Capacitance vary directly with the area applied the bigger the area the bigger the capacitor. There is another element that will increase the size that is the rating of the capacitor voltage since more material will have to be used to insulate the plates
Why is voltage rating of a capacitor important to the user?
The voltage rating of a capacitor tells the user how much voltage the capacitor can withstand. If a user exceeds this voltage, the capacitor's dielectric may be damaged and destroyed.
By what factors is the life expectancy of a capacitor increased if the capacitor is operated at half its voltage rating?
eight
Can you use capacitor for diesel generator set in running condition?
DG set is designed for 0.8 lag power factor. if it fall below this, we can used proper rating capacitor to improve this. what happens if we run the DG at .6 pf
Can you use a 35uf oval capacitor in place of a 45uf round?
The shape of a capacitor has no meaning to the circuit. What matters is the capacitance, the voltage rating, and the current rating. 35uf is not the same as 45uf.
Can you replace 1.7 microFarad capacitor with 2 microFarad capacitor of capacitor start motor?
It should work okay as long as voltage rating is equal to or greater than the capacitor you are replacing.
Which type of capacitor has the highest voltage rating?
Those with vacuum as the dielectric have.
Will capacitor size increase if the voltage rating oes up?
Yes.
Can you use a higher voltage rating capacitor with the same uf rating?
Yes, it will work fine. The downside is that it might cost more than one of the lower voltage rating, or that it might be physically larger. A capacitor voltage rating is a maximum, so any lower voltage is also acceptable.
Can you use a high voltage capacitor on a low voltage battery?
Yes. You just don't want to exceed the voltage rating of the capacitor.
What does the volt on a capacitor mean?
the voltage number on the capacitor indicates that the capacitor can with stand to that particular voltage across it.generally during design, the value of capacitor will be selected in such a way that this voltage rating should be double than what really we get in the circuit
How do you increase the value of a capacitor?
A: Any additional capacitor added in parallel will effectively increase to total capacitance by that value. Note that additional capacitor added must have the same voltage rating as the other
