Target power factor for Capacitance calculation
“Target power factor”
Set a target power factor for capacitance calculation. The power factor gets influenced badly if inductive loads,
such as motors, are connected to the power supply because current phases lag behind the voltage phases in
this case. Usually, phase advanced capacitors are installed in high-voltage-receiving installations, to reduce
such influences. Improving the power factor may cut down electricity tariffs if the customer is on low-, high- or
industrial power construction.
