Irwin, Basic Engineering Circuit Analysis, 9/E 1

SOLUTION:

The correct answer is c.

From the power triangle:

Qold  Pold tan  old
Qold  120k tan 45  120k var
S old  (120k  j120k ) VA  17045 kVA

S new  Pold  jQnew

 new  cos 1 (0.95)  18.19
Qnew  Pold tan  new
Qnew  120k tan 18.19  39.43k var
S new  120k  j 39.43k VA
S new  126.3118.19 kVA
S cap  S new  S old   j80.57 kVA
Qcap   CV 2
 80.57 k  2 60(C )(480 2 )
C  928 F
