what is power factor?

Answer Posted / ariel

It is the ratio of true power(watts) and apparent power(VA).

PF=watts/va= cos teta

unity pf - the voltage and current are in phase
lagging pg - the current lags the voltage by an acute angle
teta
leading pf - the current leads the volatage by an acute
angle teta
zero pf - if the voltage and current are out of phase by
exactly 90 deg.

Hello everyone, somebody knows what is a "surplice power" ? The hole phrase is: "This rating is appropriate for a generator set paralleled with an infinite bus e.g. a national electrical supply network or grid where the generator set is run at 100% load, 24 hours a day, 365 days a year and any surplice power is exported into the grid" Thanks in advance.
