A single-phase motor takes 8.3 A at a power factor of 0.866 lagging when connected to a 230 V, 50 Hz supply. Two similar capacitors
A single-phase motor takes 8.3 A at a power factor of 0.866 lagging when connected to a 230 V, 50 Hz supply. Two similar capacitors are connected in parallel with each other to form a capacitance bank.This capacitance bank is now connected in parallel with the motor to raise the power factor to unity.Determine the capacitance of each capacitor.
