wat is power factor

Answer Posted / eraks

wenever v supply power (S) to a load den it gets divided into two parts namely active/real/true power (P) and reactive power(Q) depending on the type of load.
so v can say S= P+Q vectorially &
P = S cos#
Q = S sin#
where S is supply power or apparent power.

=> cos# = P/S i.e. ratio of true power and apparent power.THIS is POWER FACTOR.


Its value lies btwn (-1) to ( +1)
power factor is negative wen direction of flow of power
gets reversed i.e. from load to supply or v can say it may b the case due to ferranti effect.

If any HVDC line is going with positive & negative(the negative usually have return path of current with earthing electrode). Now the question is if this HVDC earthed electrode which is using as return path and earthed any nearby 400kv or 220kv AC substation equipments. which will be the impact of this on AC substation & its equipment, how severe may be this and what should be the minimum distance require between HVDC earthed electrode and AC substation equipments? It's really an high engineering level question...Dare to answer and increase your knowledge.
