Abstract

An automated power factor correction system can optimize energy efficiency and reduce costs for a single-phase household load of 2200 VA. Voltage-current phase differences can be corrected using automated power factor correction devices, such as capacitors, greatly enhancing power factor proximity to unity. As utilities frequently base their charges on power factor performance, this adjustment not only improves power utilization efficiency but also reduces wastage associated with reactive power consumption. Embedding power factor correction within residential electrical systems appears as a practical and effective strategy for adjusting energy consumption as automation technology develops in accessibility and sophistication. A control system that could automatically correct power for a single phase of 2200 VA to achieve 0.95 to 1 power factor was developed as a result of the system test. The system is intended to reduce inductive reactance power to a maximum of 960 VAR, with a minimum of 120 VAR. 8 steps of correction level provide higher resolution and capacity of power factor correction.
