What is meant by Active and reactive power?
Answer Posted / teja
active power: the actual power delivered to the load .
root over 3 v(line)*i(line)*cos (phi).
reactive pwer: the power which is not useful to the
load...it is the power used to compensate the losses that
occured in the machine...

What will be the impact on motor performance if a LT motor is rewound with changed motor winding data as given below:- Original winding data: total 04 wires = 02 wires of 17 SWG + 02 wires of 16.5 SWG. Changed Winding data: total 03 wires of 15.5 SWG wire size Motor rating: 160KW, 740RPM, 415V, ID FAN application. Normal Running Current = 95% of FL Current.
