Power Factor Correction for Cranes by ZubairAfzal is a document available to read on EtoBox.
Power factor correction equipment can reduce utility bills and power losses. Installing power factor correction on container cranes can reduce the monthly utility bill by 6-10% due to lower system losses. Poor power factor results from reactive currents that do not do useful work but increase phase angle between voltage and current. Many utilities charge penalties for low power factor or reactive power usage. Proper power factor also avoids oversizing electrical equipment like transformers to handle higher
