Can a power factor correction device improve weak household voltage?
So basically in terms of generation of power the electrical company still produces the same amount of energy even if you have a PFC. I was thinking does the PFC has the same ability than a capacitor bank the type that is use in big industrial places in order to help when you have extra load on...- romeff00

short circuit makes u have to go for a higher capacity wire. Sometimes the reason why we step up is because the wire we using will not be able to withstand a short circuit- romeff00

Can a power factor correction device improve weak household voltage?
I got a question for you. Living in a country with 250 Volts elect, i got into a house that had weak lights from time to times, and the other some times couldn't turn on some appliances because of that, is there a device which would correct that? I was thinking of a PFCD - The PFCD increases...- romeff00
