nowadays we using the HVDC system (high voltage direct
current transmission )by using silicon arc rectifier and
thyristor. alternator generates ac and for transmission it
is converted into direct current by using silicon arc
rectifier and at receving side again direct current is
converted into ac by using thysistor and used for
distribution.

Answer / jeyachandran
In the transmission system consists of generating the AC
power in the generation station to convert DC power.
then transmitted the DC power through the transmission
line and they again invert DC to AC.
The AC power is distribute to the consumers.
AC power didn't transmitted in long transmission because of
losses is higher compare to DC transmission

What is mean by Power factor
I need to compare the energy consumption of an industrial machine before and after improving. Shall I compare the apparent power or the active power? I know usually factories use compensated capacitors (or other similar components) to compensate the reactive power, so if I use the apparent power, it's not the real power consumed.
