I am going to install a capacitor bank across a 1600kw,6.3kv induction motor. Calculated Kvars are 200 kvars and capacitance is 45 micro farad if bank is star connected or 15 micro farad if bank is in delta connection.

My motor is star connected, can some one advise me which connection i shall adopt for capacitors, star or delta and reason to adopt this connection.

I suggest you read Control List Thread # 1026192829!
