A capacitor does not and cannot work as a 'power saver' or, more-accurately, 'energy saver'.
However, a capacitor can be used to reduce the power factor of a load. Reducing power factor, though, has absolutely no effect whatsoever on the amount of energy consumed by that load and will not reduce the energy bill for a residential consumer such as you or me.
What reducing power factor does is to reduce the load current which, in turn, will reduce the amount of copper that must be provided by the utility company, in terms of its cables and Transformers. So power factor 'improvement' can save the utility company money, by allowing it to use smaller cables and transformers to supply any given load.

How the capacitor tripping device works?
A capacitor tripping device is designed to protect capacitor banks from overcurrent or voltage conditions. It monitors the electrical parameters of the capacitor, such as current, voltage, and temperature, and can detect faults or abnormal conditions. When a fault is detected, the device quickly disconnects the capacitor from the circuit by triggering a circuit breaker or contactor, preventing damage and ensuring system safety. This protective action helps maintain the reliability and efficiency of power systems.
When DC power is first applied to an uncharged capacitor it appears as a?
When DC power is first applied to an uncharged capacitor it appears as a short circuit.
Why is rectified voltage storge in a capacitor?
Because a capacitor is ideal for storing energy over short periods, as in a reservoir capacitor in a power supply.
How do you connect a targa capacitor to your amplifier?
To connect a Targa capacitor to your amplifier, first ensure the amplifier is turned off and disconnected from power. Connect the positive terminal of the capacitor to the positive power terminal of the amplifier, and the negative terminal of the capacitor to the negative power terminal. Finally, connect the capacitor's ground terminal to a solid ground point on the vehicle. Always double-check your connections and polarity before powering the system back on.
How do you use a capacitor as a power saver?
You cannot use a capacitor as a 'power saver' or, more accurately, 'energy saver'! A capacitor may improve the power-factor of a load, and this may reduce the value of its load current, but this does not reduce the energy consumed by the load. For a residence, a so-called 'power save' capacitor is nothing more than a rip-off.
Can a capacitor serves as energy saver device?
no, not really

What is characteristic of power factor in capacitor?
Power factor characteristic in a capacitor is a measurement of how efficiently a capacitor uses electrical energy.
Do power saver really works?
No, it is not.These devices don't decrease your bill.It is basically about making compensation of reactive power with capacitors.So in your houses it isn't necessary to do that.Because your electric power meter does not count reactive power.
Is a power factor capacitor different from a regular capacitor?
A power factor capacitor is a power capacitor. I'm not sure what you mean by "regular". There are different types, made from different materials that have better/worse characteristics than others depending on the application. You could use any high power capacitor for power factor correction, as long as it is sized correctly for the load and voltage.
What is an AC capacitor and how does it function in electrical systems?
An AC capacitor is a component in electrical systems that stores and releases electrical energy. It helps to improve the efficiency and power factor of the system by providing a temporary boost of power when needed. The capacitor works by storing charge on its plates, which can then be discharged to help maintain a stable voltage and current flow in the circuit.
