A factory is supplied with a 3-phase 6600V 60 hz transmission line. The factory has the following loads. Load A : 1.2 MVA at 0.8 lag p.f. Load B: 2 MVA at 0.75 lead p.f. Load C : 0.8 MW at unity p.f. To correct the overall p.f to 0.99 lag at full load , requires a wye connected capacitor bank. Determine the capacitance per phase of the bank
