Answer / natarajanramkumar
PowerFactor of circuit may be defined as:
a.The ratio of resistance and impedance=R/Z
b.The ratio=Watts/Voltamperes=True power/Apparent
power=V*I*costheta/V*I.

Answer / keerthi
Power Factor means , if power given by E.B, We cannot use
total amount of power which delivered by it, there will be
sum imaginary power . That imaginary power can be called as
Apparent Power. The ratio between Apparent power and Total
power is called as POWER FACTOR and it always be less than
one. We should maintain the ratio is in nearest of 1.
(i.e.,)0.9..

Answer / anbumozhi r
The cosine angle between voltage and current is called as power factor
| Is This Answer Correct ? | 0 Yes | 0 No |
Answer / arunsenthil
power factor is the angle between voltage and the current.
if the power factor is a leading one then it will be
efficient.

As we know multiplicity factor derivation equation is as below MF = main c t ratio / main p t ratio * meter c t ratio / meter p t ratio * meter dial constant Where in digital meters for HT kwh import export now a days meter constant are calibrated already which is 1 So my question is For HT 11kv 110 v line values are as below Main c t and p t ratio are 11000 v and 110 v and 20/5 means 20 amp and 5 amp Now meter values are 11000/√3/110√3 and primary and secondary amp are displayed as -/5 amp on kwh meter so what will be the MF for this meter ?

why 3 phase is converted into 2 phase using electronics circuit why not 2 phases are diresctly putted from the 3 phase transformer??
plz send me the placement interview question and answers of whizchip(technical and apttitude)..i have an interview in next.
You are of electrical field and you are going for software? Why
how we test a 3 phase motor on single phase supply....? HOW WE RUN A 3 PHASE MOTOR ON SNIGLE PHASE. supply for testing..? how we verify of a 3 phase motors 6 wire & name thame a1/a2/a3..b1/b2/b3 and c1/c2/c3 for connecting star delta starter ........i have only 1 phase supply ? help forum..........
