  2. Load bank - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Load_bank

    An inductive load consists of an iron-core reactive element which, when used in conjunction with a resistive load bank, creates a lagging power factor load. Typically, the inductive load will be rated at a numeric value 75% that of the corresponding resistive load such that when applied together a resultant 0.8 power factor load is provided.

  3. Power factor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_factor

    Power flow calculated from AC voltage and current entering a load having a zero power factor (ϕ = 90°, cos(ϕ) = 0).The blue line shows the instantaneous power entering the load: all of the energy received during the first (or third) quarter cycle is returned to the grid during the second (or fourth) quarter cycle, resulting in an average power flow (light blue line) of zero.

  4. Leading and lagging current - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leading_and_Lagging_Current

    Angle notation can easily describe leading and lagging current: . [1] In this equation, the value of theta is the important factor for leading and lagging current. As mentioned in the introduction above, leading or lagging current represents a time shift between the current and voltage sine curves, which is represented by the angle by which the curve is ahead or behind of where it would be ...

  5. Voltage optimisation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Voltage_optimisation

    The latter includes power that is unusable, so a power factor of 1 is desirable. A low power factor would mean that the electricity supplier would effectively supply more energy than the consumer's bill would indicate, and suppliers are allowed to charge for low power factors. Reactive power is the name given to unusable power. It does no work ...

  6. Power-voltage curve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power-voltage_curve

    Power-voltage curve (also P-V curve) describes the relationship between the active power delivered to the electrical load and the voltage at the load terminals in an electric power system under a constant power factor. [1] When plotted with power as a horizontal axis, the curve resembles a human nose, thus it is sometimes called a nose curve. [2]
