What is meant by Active and reactive power?
Answer Posted / gowthaman.a
Active power is nothing but the actual power ( Kw ) or Real
power Consumed by a load .If we are not maintaining the
power factor at the appreciable value that is if cos0 is
decreasing then sino is increased that is VI SIN o is
reactive power.
cos o = Active power / Apparent Power = Kw / KVA
Reactive power = VI SINo = Kvar.
