KVAR TO AMPS CALCULATION – Voltage Disturbance
Capacitor Tolerance. IEEE STD 18-2012, which is the standard for shunt power capacitors allow capacitor tolerance between 0-10%. This tolerance could be +15% according to IEC standard. This means a capacitor with 100kVAR name plate data could deliver anywhere from 100-115kVAR of reactive power and consequently draw larger …
