“…PFC is a technique of counteracting the undesirable effects of electric loads that create a power factor that is less than one. PFC may be applied either by an electrical power transmission utility to improve the stability and efficiency of the transmission network or correction may be installed by individual electrical customers to reduce the costs charged to them by their electricity supplier [3,4,13]. This paper defines the programmable interface controller (PIC) and PLC based power factor controller.…”

“…The magnetizing current is almost always higher than 20% of the rated full load current of the motor, but can be as high as 60% of the rated current of the motor. Most power factor correction is too light due to the selection based on tables, which have been published by a number of sources [4]. These tables assume the lowest magnetizing current and quote capacitors for this current.…”

Low power factor is usually not a big problem in residential homes. It does, however, become a problem in industries where multiple motors are operational. Therefore, there is a dire requirement to correct the power factor in industries. To rectify the issue and providing a fruitful solution is the major task of our research work. Although there are different methods of power corrections are available with certain pros and cons. Occasionally, the power factor correction capacitors are implemented to correct the problems using pacific techniques and somehow active techniques as well. Each technique has its own limitations in terms of computational complexity and implementation cost. In the proposed technique, we implement the micro-controller and programmable logic controller based system in combination with capacitor bank for the power factor correction. This way, we can efficiently control the power factor.
