Answer / satmeet
reactive power is the part of the current
that is not consumed.It is only used to energise
the field winding to create flux.

Answer / genjua
power loss due to capacitive n inductive load = reactive
power.

Answer / krishnamoorthy s
It is one of the power loss due to inductive load. this also Also called imaginary power or watt less power. It is the power value in "volt amps" obtained from the product of source voltage and source current in a reactive circuit.

Answer / abhishek goyal
Its a inductive power
KVAR=KVA SINQ
it will increase or produce by the inductive equipment like
motor, transformer and other inductive equipment. It reduce
the power factor of system.

We say that if voltage in a power system is increased,for a constant power the current will decrease (by P=VI). isn't this in disagreement with the ohms law(I propotional V;resistant const.).Since the resistance of transmission lines remains constant,shouldn't inc in voltage cause inc in current across the transmission line? I have read many articles across the net but still couldn't this figure this out. :( Guyz plz assist me with dis..:)..
