A 3-phase, 50 Hz, 1100 V motor has a total load output of 100 hp and a power factor of 0.78 learning and an efficiency of 85 %. This power factor is corrected to 0.92 by a capacitor bank connected in delta. A capacitance unit is made up of 4 identical 275 V capacitors. So find the capacitance of each capacitor.

capacitor is 3.2 microfarads and the
rms voltage of the generator is 50
volts. Frequency

and (b) what is the rms current in the
circuit when it is 1000 Hz?
3. A 3-phase, 50 Hz, 3000 V motor develops 600 H.P. (447-6 kW), the power factor being 0-75 lagging and
the efficiency 0-93. A bank of capacitors is connected in delta across the supply terminals and power
factor raised to 0-95 lagging. Each of the capacitance units is built of five similar 600-V capacitors.
Determine the capacitance of each capacitor.
