Answer Posted / r.r.pandian

Active Power:Which is convert from electrical energy.it is
measure by W,KW,MW
Reactive power:It happens in circuit at the time of current
flowing and induced magnetising.It is measured by Kvar.
Apparent Power:It is not converted,It is transforms
electrical energy.(Voltage depends cu loss,current depends
Iron loss)It is measured by VA.

These are Three types of power.
