Automatic power factor corrector is designed to improve power factor automatically whenever power factor falls below a certain level. As we know demand of electrical energy is increasing day by day. Now a days many inductive loads are used in industry and small scale applications. This Inductive loads causes the decline in power factor and are one of the main reason for power factor reduction in industrial applications. Therefore there is an urge to increase the degraded power factor. Automatic power corrector provides solution to this problem. Because of low power factor there is burden on power system and transmission lines which is unnecessary. By correcting power factor of power system , efficiency of power system can be improved.  In this methodology, power factor correction prototype is developed using pic micro controller,relays ,potential transformer,current transformer and zero crossing circuit.
