what is the difference between ACTIVE POWER and REACTIVE
POWER.I WANT CLEAR ANSEWER.

Answer Posted / kumaresan.g

Active Power Means actually to deliver the ac machine
( ie., It is generating power). [Power in MW (P=VI)].

Reactive power Means the load utilize the actual power it
is the reactive power. Power in mva [P=VI Cos(Theta)]

In our factory so many iron pillors are exists for supporting the shed/Hangar. If do more no of earthings at one piller instead of doing more earth pits in many locations and running earth strip around the hanger, I can save the money. Please suggest this method is acceptable as per Is specifications though the Earth resitance of the farthest piller is with in the limits as per IS specifications.
