Abstract

This paper shows the scope of making an automatic Power Factor controller with the help of Fuzzy Logic. A Single-phase PF circuit is taken for experimental purposes in two sets of capacitor banks. Single-phase supply connected to Induction Motor as load considering for power factor correction. Capacitor along with its circuit connected in parallel to the Induction Motor. Selection of capacitor is done based on multiplier table using K Factor along with initial Cos of the load. Incoming control from MCB and current measurement are done at incoming as well as on capacitor banks individually. Seeking best selection, represent the relation between KVAr and µF. Results show we got desired permutations & combinations of data for making the FLC rule table. By this, we also thought about the industrial application using reactive power during the jerking load and sleep mode of machines.
