Calculate the compensator rating required for sin(Φ)=.13.(a) 0.45 P.U(b) 0.12 P.U(c) 0.13 P.U(d) 0.82 P.UI got this question during an interview.The above asked question is from Solid-State Switching Circuits topic in section Introduction to Solid-State Switching Circuits of Electric Drives

Answer»

The correct option is (C) 0.13 P.U

For explanation: The COMPENSATOR rating can be calculated using the relation QP.U=√1-cos^2(∅)=SIN(∅)=.13. This per UNIT value VAR compensator is required to improve the power factor of the system.
