3% lang ? kung P500 bill namin, 15 petot lang matitipid..
Pls take note that introduction of the capacitance in the AC line would only introduce power savings when an inductance is present. Inductance can be generated through flourescent bulbs with ballasts, electric fan motors, refrigerator motors, aircon compressors and transformers stepup or stepdowns. Voltage stored in the capacitor will be drained by these inductors instead of getting it all in the AC line. Absence of inductance in the whole circuit will extract more power utilizing more kwh usage.Puede na ba akong salesman sa Ace Hardware, haha...
Oo alam ko na nakakapag save ka pag may capacitor gasa mga compressor nag ref may bilog sa tabi nya cap. yun diba pati sa mga water pumps ^_^yung mga power saver n na bibili ang sinasabi ko kasi my na basa ako na parang wala lang ung circuit may nag sabi rin na 4.7 uf lng daw...??
Capacitor usually used to compensate the effect of inductive load.Power factor is the angle "factor" between Voltage and Current wave.Inductive loads makes the Current (sinewave) leads the Voltage (sinewave) by a certain degrees.Capacitor loads makes the Current (sinewave) lags the Voltage (sinewave) by a certain degrees.Sa electrical kasi they separate the Current and the Voltage wave for analysis.
Eto na po yung picture! di ko na pinakita yung harap, basta yan yung nasa ace hardware...2000phpPlease observe that the capacitor is connected in parallel with the AC line. So its obvious na decoration lang yung mga LED para masabi na operational yung device. tsk! naloko ata ako dun! yung ic po na yan, cd4017 decade counter...Capacitor nga!
...Actually , if you correct your pf, ang makikinabang ay ang utility company hindi ikaw. Bakit? .....
guess ko lang........kasi naka parallel yong outlet mo, sa outlet ng buong barangay hanggang sa abot coverage ng common distribution transformer ninyo, at ikaw ang gumagastos sa power factor correction......tama ba Uncle Ho??
