Distribution capacitors can reduce system line losses, as long as the system power factor is not forced into a leading mode. Line losses at 80 percent leading power factor are just as detrimental as line losses at 80 percent lagging power factor. Properly placed and sized capacitors can usually reduce system line losses sufficiently to justify the cost of their installation. If switched ...
