Answer / jai prakash narain singh
REACTIVE POWER-This is called useless wattage,means
losses,reactive power=root of 3Xvoltagexcurrentxsine angle
between volt and current.this is reactive power and unit is
KVAr.when power factor is unity ,KVARwill be zero.that
means apparent power is equal to true power or real power
kva(apparent power)=true power(kw)
active power and real power is same,that is called true
power also.
active power=root of 3 xvoltage x current x power
factor.this will depend on types of load.
active power and real power ,both are same

what is the difference between Power and Distribution transformers ?
Dear All, In a 400V power system, ratio of three current transformers installed incoming switchgear is 4000/1. Maximum three phases short circuit current of this system is 48kA. One CT is installed on neutral of upstream transformer (6/0.42kV, solidly earthed) for 51G protection. Would you please inform me about the correct CT ratio of this current transformer (on neutral)?? Thanks a million

hello every one, what is the difference between the Kvar and farads, Rating on Power capacitor is for eg: x kvar, and normal capacitor is eg: x farads. what is the relation between these two?
what happens if power factor is maintained at 0.9?give me the answer in technicall way rather than telling the penality n all

How to find Cable size? Caterpillar generator produce (Two generators) 127*2=254 amp at 11 kv . What would be the cable size (XLPE) to supply 256 amp at 11 kv? Air or surrounding Temperature is 32 degree C. Cable will go under ground at 2.5 feet depth. Group Rating Factors is 3 cables. Clearance between cables is 7 cm. Soil Temperature (Ambient) 28o C Soil Thermal Resistivity is 1.2 K.m/W I would like to use 3 separate single core instead of using 3 core cable. Some says I should use three separate single core 120RM cables. Some says 70RM .some says 95. I m totally confused. Is there ant specific rule to determine cable size? What would be the LT cable size to flow 500 Amp current? Ifte My e mail address is ifte13@yahoo.com Anyone please send me the answer to my e mail address, i will be very glad.
why we use four type of phase angle difference between pimary & secondry winding of a transformer & where we use them?
Hello seniors m an engineering student in 3rd yr..i want to know what are the software course in electrical field?i wanted to do certification course but i dont know much about the course?..Regards
