Abstract: A system receives power from a power grid, has a variable frequency AC drive has an output connected to an AC motor, and an input connected to the grid. The motor is connected with a load, and the drive includes an active converter having a maximum apparent power capacity. The converter is coupled to a controller programmed to regulate reactive power generation and consumption of the drive so that the drive produces reactive power which is fed to the grid when the converter is utilizing less than maximum apparent power capacity. A device calculates power factor, which is fedback to a controller that generates a reference signal to control the system's power factor. The controller is programmed to respond to the signal, so that the apparent power does not exceed the maximum capacity of the converter and avoids generating reactive power thats result in a leading power factor.
