MGVCL Exam Paper (30-07-2021 Shift 2)
A three-phase, 12 kV, 50 Hz and 300 kW load is operating at 0.8 pf lag. If the pf is to be improved to unity, using star connected capacitor, the per phase value of the reactive VAR required is:
Simple logic of reactance diagram is that simplified equivalent circuit of power system in which the various components of power system are represented by their reactances. The reactance diagram can be obtained from impedance diagram if all the resistive components are neglected.
Where, d is distance in m Q is value of variable resistor in ohm P is variable resistance in ohm Here Q/P = 1/3 is given, d = Q/(P + Q)*Loop length = 1/4*(2*600) = 300 m
