Leading Current from the Supply Line | Wiring | Electrical Engineering

The following devices take leading current from the supply line: 1. Static Capacitor or Condenser 2. Over-Excited Synchronous Motor 3. Phase Advancer. Device # 1. Static Capacitor or Condenser: Static capacitor takes a current which leads the applied voltage by about 90°. Thus, it acts in direct opposition to inductance, neutralizes the inductive influence of the circuit and improves the [...]
