Let Vmcos(wt+X) be the voltage and Imcos(wt+Y) be the current through the inductor.
Now the power is given by
P=V*I=VmImcos(wt+X)cos(wt+Y)
By using a trigonometric identity:
P= 0.5 * VmIm * cos(X-Y) + 0.5 * VmIm * cos(2wt+X+Y)
This expression has 2 terms which both must be zero.
The first term is a constant (independent of time) but notice that in an inductor Voltage leads Current by 90 degrees so X-Y = 90 and cos(90) = 0 so first term is zero.
Now for average power integrate the above expression for a cycle and divide it by time period, since integral of every sinusoid for a complete cycle is zero the next term will essentially be zero too.

So P = 0 for an inductor.

what do you mean by PF correction. A motor is rated at 15 kw,415 volts, 0.7 pf and eff of 0.92. The powerfactor is improved to 0.98 by adding capacitors at the bus. calculate the current drawn by motor under full load condition before and after pf correction
