Problem 2 Power and Power Factor Correction A single phase motor takes 8.3 A at a power factor of 0.87 lagging when connected to a 230 V, 50 Hz supply. Two identical capacitors are connected in parallel with each other to form a capacitor bank. The capacitor bank is now connected in parallel with the motor to raise the power factor to unity. Determine the capacitance of each capacitor.
