Benefits of Power Factor Correction in Motor - Driven Systems
"Excessive current draws due to low power factors also cause excessive system voltage drops. Operating motor-driven equipment under low voltage conditions results in efficiency decreases, motor overheating, and subsequent diminished motor life. By adding power factor correction capacitors, you can restore operating voltage to proper design conditions."
