somewhere near where power comes into a building there is a phase angle or power factor meter
automatic control will add capacitor banks until the phase angle is 0
when fluorescent lamps used transformer ballasts there could be lagging power factor
lightly loaded motors do this too
the power company charges you more if you have a load that is not near unity
power factor control panel CT install before AVR and after control power factor
automatic power factor controller
Power Factor Improvement Panel. It controls power factor
It automatically controls the power factor with respect to the set point defined, by putting on or off the capacitor banks as needed.
power control center panel
Simple technique by adding PP capacitor with automatic power factor controller.

Most of the commercial and Industrial installations have large electrical loads which are severely inductive in nature, such as motors, large machines, air conditioners, drivers etc. Which results in a severely lagging power factor. This means loss and wastageof energy and heavy penalties by electricity boards. In case of fixed loads this can be taken care by manual switching of capacitors.However in case of rapidly varying and scattered loads it becomes difficult to maintain a high power factor by manually switching on/off the capacitors in proportion to variation of load within an installation. This drawback is overcome by using an APFC panel (Automatic Power Factor Correction Panel) which not only maintains a high power factor but also eliminates the eliminates the need for constant manual intervention.The ratio of Active Power to Apparent Power is called Power Factor (PC) :Power Factor = Active Power/ Apparent Power = KW/KVAIf you want to know more about PFC panels please visit www.powerfactorcorrector.com or email me on info@urjaghar.com.
You can do it from Power Option in Control Panel.
