Electric power is the rate at which electrical energy is transferred by an electric circuit. The SI unit of power is the watt (one joule per second). Use this tag where power is a primary concern for the design under discussion. Use the "low-power" tag when that applies.

calculating the total power needed by factory

I do not know why your power calculations (sheet 3) shows 1250 in the kW column. … Always sum P's (Real Power) and Q's (Reactive Power) to create a final power triangle to calculate S (Complex Power) total. …

Will a 3HP motor ever use less electricity (power) than a 1.5HP

Also real power does the mechanical work. … It’s possible that you could be asking about using less reactive power. Reactive power does not do work. …

Would an AC induction motor rotate if the power factor were unity?

You should research the advantages of power factor correction in a system to understand why. … Now your other questions, why is power factor set to .8 or .9, once again the devices in the system whether they are inductive or capacitive loads will determine the power factor of the system. …

How to measure True Power (Not Apparent Power) consumption in Alternating Current using ESP8...

Apparent Power² = Real Power² + Reactive Power² (Apparent Power = Sq. … Root of Real Power² + Reactive Power²) Complex Power = Real Power + Reactive Power (S∠θ = P∠θ + jQ∠θ) Power Factor for the calculation of True Power The power factor can be calculated by the taking …

Transmission Line Inductance

The transmission line will move maximum Real Power (P = I^2 * R) across the line when the power angle is greatest, meaning Vr and Vs are 90 degrees out of phase. … We will simply choose to describe the power flow as negative reactive power, since power would flow into Vs, contrary to its name V(sending). …

Edge betweenness centralities for distribution grids

This is not ideal in power systems because we want to shut off the least amount of transmission lines as possible to isolate an issue. … Shutting off the "hub" in this image would remove all power to every connected loop. …
