Chapter 20, Problem 20P

The loading of a factory on a 1000 V, 60 Hz system includes:

20 kW heating (unity power factor)

10 kW (Pi) induction motors (0.7 lagging power factor)

5 kW lighting (0.85 lagging power factor)

a. Establish the power triangle for the total loading on the supply.

b. Determine the power-factor capacitor required to raise the power factor to unity.

c. Determine the change in supply current from the uncompensated to the compensated system.
