what is meant by unity power factor?unity means one why dont
call 2,3,4......?

Answer Posted / vijay kumar

P=V * I * power factor
If p.f =1

P=V * I

Power factor means phase angle between voltage &
Current.Angle varies between 0 to 360 degree.The value of
cosine in any quadrant cannot be more than 1.so power
factor is maintained one to get maximum power.
