Typically the power factor penalty that a utility charges is only for inductive lagging power factors or leading ones too? i.e. is the penalty for all PF differences from unity or only on the inductive side? e.g. Say I have a lot of motors which bring the PF down & I add a static capacitor...

When you connect a capacitor across an inductive load, reactive power (Q) flows back and forth between capacitor and inductor, so (ideally) the generator doesn't need to supply Q to the load. My question is, why doesn't the capacitor supply Q to the generator as well? If only a capacitor were...
