What is the effect if power factor is above 1 or unity.
Answer Posted / vasu
The power factor of an AC electric power system is defined
as the ratio of the real power flowing to the load to the
apparent power in the circuit,[1][2] and is a dimensionless
number between 0 and 1 (frequently expressed as a
percentage, e.g. 0.5 pf = 50% pf). Real power is the
capacity of the circuit for performing work in a particular
time. Apparent power is the product of the current and
voltage of the circuit. Due to energy stored in the load and
returned to the source, or due to a non-linear load that
distorts the wave shape of the current drawn from the
source, the apparent power will be greater than the real power
