The kVAR capacity is reduced to 0.4408 pu or 44.08% primarily due to significant
reduction in the voltage.
The capacitor improves the pf as explained in Figure 10.5. Without the capacitor
in Figure 10.5a, the load kilowatt and kVAR both are supplied by the source. With
the capacitor in Figure 10.5b, the capacitor kVAR leads the voltage by 90°, whereas
inductive load kVARs lag the voltage by 90°. Thus, they have opposite polarity:
