Small load with all power factors given
Pfc Sizing
Calculates the reactive power compensation needed to improve a load from an initial lagging power factor to a target power factor. The reduced method uses Qc = P x (tan phi_initial - tan phi_target), then reports the corrected apparent power and current reduction.
