This study aims to analyze the strategies used by teachers to increase students’ reading interest in the Indonesian language subject at SDN 73/IX Simpang Sungai Duren. The background of this research is the low reading interest among students, which negatively affects their comprehension and academic performance, particularly in Indonesian language learning. This study employed a qualitative approach using a case study method. Data were collected through classroom observations, interviews with teachers and students, and documentation of literacy-related activities. The results showed that teachers implemented several strategies to foster reading interest, including story-based learning, the use of visual and digital media, creative reading assignments, and a routine of reading before starting lessons. These strategies were proven to gradually increase students’ enthusiasm for reading and encouraged more active participation in learning. Supporting factors in the implementation of these strategies included the availability of engaging reading materials and support from the school administration. However, several inhibiting factors were also identified, such as the lack of adequate library facilities and students’ initially low reading motivation.This study concludes that the teacher's role is crucial in developing a reading culture at the elementary level. Therefore, it is recommended that schools provide ongoing professional development for teachers in literacy instruction strategies, and enhance literacy-supporting facilities to ensure the sustainable growth of students’ reading interest.

<p>The use of electricity with large capacity sometimes faces various kinds of problems. These problems include network losses and voltage drops that occur in the channel. Improvement of electric power factor at PT. Karya Toha Putra is expected to improve the quality of electric power. This improvement is also expected to reduce the cost of electricity bills at PT. Karya Toha Putra. To be able to implement improvements in the quality of the electric power, it is necessary to calculate the reactive power compensated. In this case the power factor to be achieved is 0.95. After doing these calculations, the determination of the capacitor value will be used. By doing these stages, it is expected that the installation of capacitor banks can improve the quality of electric power. Bank capacitors are collections of capacitors used to provide reactive power compensation to improve the electrical power factor. From the results of the study showed that the amount of compensation needed to improve the power factor at PT. Karya Toha Putra is 50 kVAR, divided into 5 steps with one step, a capacitor of 10 kVAR.</p>
