Abstract

The development of the housing, hotel, and mall sectors has resulted in an ever-increasing demand for electrical energy. Therefore, the electrical energy distribution is fast, precise, and accurate. Calculating the quality of the power factor, conductors, and safety is necessary. This is because it involves the reliability of the system. The quality of the power factor must be maintained by the standards given by PLN to reduce the cost of electric power used, increase system capacity, increase voltage, and reduce losses to the system. Calculating the KHA is also essential to make it easier to determine the cross-sectional area of the cable that will be used correctly, safely, and by predetermined standards. At the same time, calculating the magnitude of the breaker capacity is essential for safety and the current breaker when there is a short circuit (short circuit) or overload (overload), which can cause damage to the electric motor and fire due to sparks. In this study, we will design and calculate the value of the capacitor bank, the calculation of the value of the cable KHA, and the capacity of the MCC breaker using the LabVIEW interface so that it can make it easier for the industry to do calculations quickly just by entering load data.
