The power factor of a load connected to a 120-v 60-hz


The power factor of a load connected to a 120-V 60-Hz source is raised from 0.866 lagging to 0.966 leading by connecting a 110.5-F capacitor in parallel with the load. Determine the load current I1 and the circuit current IT. Explain why the power factor correction capacitor is connected in parallel and not in series with the load?
