what happens if power factor is maintained at 0.9?give me
the answer in technicall way rather than telling the
penality n all

Answer Posted / hirosh babu

All the above answers are right. I just want to add few
points to that.

For transmitting a const power,

lower the power factor, greater will be the current and
hence greater will be losses and larger area of cross
section of conductor will be required.

By maintaining pf at 0.9, our active power will be high as
P= VI cos (pi), larger the pf larger the active power for a
fixed voltage and current.
