    Why can't I increase power factor past 0.85 on a simple induction washing machine motor?

    I am a high school senior and I have elected to demonstrate power factor correction as a science project. I have a 120 volt 60 hz induction motor from a washing machine. I have calculated the required capacitance, 105 mfd, and with this amount the PF is a disappointingly 0.85. If I add or...
