    Power Factor Correction

    Calculation
    Follow the Steps Below to Calculate the Power Factor Correction required for your installation.
    Click-On Cells with Blue Text to Modify Values, Results will be Displayed in Green

    Step 1. Calculate Actual Load (kW)


    (Load) Power kW = Volts V x 3 x Current I x Power factor Pf
    Non-Corrected Load (kVA)
    Actual Load (kW)

    692.8
    415.7

    400
    1000
    0.600

    Nominal Voltage (V)


    Non-Corrected Current (Amps)
    Non-Corrected Power Factor (Cos)

    Figures for Current (Amps) and Power Factor (Cos) can be either Measured or Calculated

    Step 2. Calculate Required Power Factor Correction (kVAr)


    Power Factor Correction kVAr = Power kW (Tani - Tand)
    i = Cos Initial Power Factor Pf
    d = Cos required Power Factor Pf
    Correction Required (kVAr)

    417.6

    415.7
    0.600
    0.950

    Actual Load (kW)


    Non-Corrected Power Factor (Cos)
    Required Power Factor (Cos)

    Step 3. Calculate Actual Power Factor Correction (kAVr)


    Actual Power Factor Correction Pf = Cos (Tan (Tani Corrected Power Factor (Cos)

    0.938

    400
    415.7
    0.600

    Correction kVAr
    Power kW

    Correction Applied (kVAr)


    Original Load (kW)
    Non-Corrected Power Factor (Cos)

    Typical Power Factor Correction available in multiples of 25kVAR's, for further details
