Answer / yasir liaquat arain
power factor is the measure of how efficiently a Load uses
Electricty.
or in other words we can say that "How much Energy is
consumed by the Load versus how much the Utility must
providing".
or
power facot = real power/apparent Power
power factor= R/Z
power factor is the cosine angle between Phase Voltage and
phase Current

Answer / abhishek goyal
cosq=P/VI
Power factor= KW/KVA
POWER FACTOR= R/Z
ITS ANGLE BETWEEN THE VOLTAGE AND CURRENT
IF COSQ=1 ITS A UNITY POWER FACTOR

We have a 33/11kv switchyard having 12.5 MVA power transformer. We export & import power through this transformer. When we export power, the PF will be depend on GRID PF & when we import power the PF will be depend on our load PF. but the problem is that,when neither we export nor import but our 33KV vCB is in close position,our meter read the power factor 0.14 to 0.25 at that moment. So how can be we improve the power factor at that moment.
