Need your expert advice here: in many high-rise buildings nowadays, power factor (displacement) has been close to unity (0.95) which makes capacitor bank pretty much redundant. What do you think of setting the power factor (cos phi) target to the capacitive side (let's say 0.9 leading) to force the capacitor bank to switch-in and therefore reducing the harmonics content within the distribution system by acting as a passive harmonic filter. Of course, assuming the capacitor is equipped with suitable reactors.
