what is meant by real power,active power,reactive power &
apprent power ?please explain it?
Answer Posted / raghavendran
Real power refers to the power that is available to the load
or in other words a power is presently being generated.It
depends upon the load power factor.
Apparent power is the maximum power which, a source is
capable of generating at unity power factor.
for Ex : sqrt3* V*I*COS(phi)keeping v = 20 kv and I=20000A
and COS(phi)= 1
we get Apparent power = 692 MVA
where as for COS(phi)= .85 we get 588 kw which is real power
reactive power is something which is not consumed by the
load.It is available circulating in the grid
always.Depending upon the load connected,it is either
rejected into the grid or absorbed in.

Please clarify, 1. Is it required to lay two runs of GI wire along with Armoured LT cable if it is laid between one big mains (63Amps TPN SDF) to small main (32A TPN SDF) with proper glanding termination? 2. If the armoured cable with proper glanding is laid from DB to CNC machine, is it required to run two runs of body earthing to the Machine from DB? 3.If the armoured cable with proper glanding is laid from Substation to Hangar, distance is approx. 100 mtrs, is it required to do earthing at shop area though the primary termination at substation is earthed through gland.
