power , P=1.732*V*I*power factor so, the formula for calculate the load current for a 3 phase motor is,I=P/(1.732*V*power factor)
in case of inductor or capacitor power factor is always zero.as power factor is cosine of phase angle between voltage and current. in case of inductor and capacitor phase angle between voltage and current is 90 so it become zero so if given power factor is zero then it can be inductor or capacitor.
Power factor capacitors can be installed on a three phase motor between the motor contactor and the overload heater block.

Root 3 x voltage x current x power factor = power in watt
