What is the effect if power factor is above 1 or unity.
Answer Posted / muhammad tahir khan
A power factor of one or "unity power factor" is the goal
of any electric utility company since if the power factor
is less than one, they have to supply more current to the
user for a given amount of power use. In so doing, they
incur more line losses. They also must have larger capacity
equipment in place than would be otherwise necessary. As a
result, an industrial facility will be charged a penalty if
its power factor is much different from 1.

I just purchased a 4 position cam switch to be used to operate a 3-speed blower motor. The motor is a 10 amp motor and has 3 wires that are used to control speed. The cam switch was rated at 660V 20 amps but when I received it, I noticed that it has AC-15 operational current rating (Ie) of 4/5 amps. If I am reading the label correctly. the 4/5 amps is related to 440v/220V (Ue). Other ratings are AC-3: 5.5A, AC2: 7.5A and AC-4: 1.5A. My questions are 1) Is it safe to use this switch with the motor I have 2) what is the difference between the 20 amp Ith ratting and the Ie operational ratings?
