What meant by lagging and leading? When if they are
occurred what preventive methods should be taken?

Answer Posted / baba

leading means current leadig the voltage if we take a anti
clock wise direction,,lagging means current is behind the
voltage by some angle if we take a anticlockwise
direction,,generally for inductive loads leading is
seen,,and for capacitative loads lagging is seen
