wat s reactive power.... how could it be compensated.....

Answer Posted / j.c.das

Power has two components - active power that is used in
doing useful work and reactive power that is a loss to the
system. Reactive power is given by sqrt(3)*VISin(phi)in
case of three phase power supply.

Reactive power is compensated by using capacitors or
synchronous motors which supplies the reactive power. These
measures improves the power factor of the system.
