Capacitors are usually used in power systems to corect power factor, which is a ver complex feild. However, yes capacitors are somtimes used with induction generators. When an induction motor is used as a generator, the spinning rotor has no appreaciable magnetisim and so the motor cannot generate electricity. Carefuly selected capacitors overcome the this difficulty induction machines have in generating voltage allowing them to opperate indipendently from another conventional generator.
Use of rvt in capacitor bank
Capacitor banks can improve the power factor if the load is leading, which is unusual. Typically in substations capacitor banks are employed to reduce over voltage.
with the help of function generator we found wave in oscilloscope
In an electric generator, the function of a capacitor is to provide reactive power and improve the power factor of the generator. When a generator is connected to a load, the load may have a combination of resistive, inductive, and capacitive components. Inductive loads can cause the power factor of the generator to decrease, resulting in lower efficiency and voltage regulation. By adding a capacitor in parallel with the generator, the reactive power generated by the capacitor can offset the reactive power of the inductive load, leading to improved power factor correction. This helps to enhance the efficiency of power transfer and stabilizes the voltage. The capacitor absorbs and supplies reactive power, reducing the strain on the generator and ensuring a steady and efficient supply of electrical energy.
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!
The capacitors in a generator is to store energy produced. They are also needed when starting the generator as a considerable amount of extra power is needed at this time.
I dont know.... may be due to save money
No, a generator capacitor failing will not stop electricity production entirely, but it may result in fluctuations in voltage output or cause the generator to stop functioning properly. It's advisable to have the capacitor replaced to ensure the generator operates efficiently.

Series reactors may be used in switching in capacitor banks. These are used to minimize the transient voltage spikes on the system resulting from switching in a capacitor bank.

it hold energy in it
if it is a capacitor start and run motor, this is because of shorted capacitor
