2. Rated Voltage : 33,000 Volt
3. Desired Power Factor (P.F) to Improve ( Cos 2) : 0.900

B. FORMULA
Active power (kW)
(*1) kvar1 = kW x tan1 = kW x sqrt [ ( 1 / cos12 ) - 1 ]
kvar2 = kW x tan2 = kW x sqrt [ ( 1 / cos22 ) - 1 ] 2
(*2) ckvar = kW x ( tan 1 - tan2 ) KVAnew

kvar2
= kW x {sqrt [( 1 / cos 12 ) - 1 ] - sqrt [( 1 / cos22 ) - 1 ] } 1

D. RESULT

D.1. Conclusion

Required capacity of the capacitor = 5,000 kvar to improve the power factor to 0.905 , is enough.
So, in consideration for the possibility of the changeable load characteristic,
Power capacitor, 33 kV, 9,000 kvar, (4500kvar x 2 sets) will be provided.
