Is it possible to power factor more than unity?

Answer Posted / rakesh

no, power factor can never be more than unity.

power factor is the ratio of real power delivered to the
apparent power.

=> pf = P/|S|
where P = real power,
s = complex power. s= sqrt(p^2 + q^2)
this means at most p can be equal to |s| if Q
i.e reactive power is zero.

so at most power factor can be unity.

real power (p)= v*i*cos(angle)
and apparent power = v*i

and that's why pf comes cos(angle).
