Abstract: | |
This paper deals with the design of power factor improvement of the power system using single phase loads. Since nearly all the loads are inductive in nature and hence provides low power factor (lagging in nature). Power factor is one of the important attribute for any AC system. The power consumed is directly proportional to the power factor. Hence for low power factor large current is required, results in voltage drop, copper loss, and increase in economic cost. To encounter such problems in a power system implementing new and better devices to improve power factor is very important. Here in this paper we are using microcontroller controlled device to improve the power factor and compensate reactive power. |
