What is the effect if power factor is above 1 or unity.

Answer Posted / victor nyami

power factor can never be more than one,and if is one then
the load is purely resistive,so all electrical energy being
metered is what is actually consumed by the load,i think
there isnt the effect of unity pf and if i could have been
forced to give an answer i could simply say"the effect of
unity pf is less electrical energy demand for a particular load"
