Recent studies indicate the level of knowledge and implementation of motor system energy-efficiency measures is low. A plethora of information on motor system design, best practices, purchasing, and ...

Low power factor reduces an electrical system’s distribution capacity by increasing current flow. Therefore, having a low power factor is inefficient and expensive. But what is power factor and what ...

1. Power-factor triangle relates the real power, the reactive power, and the apparent power. (Courtesy of Vector Group) Let’s start by talking about the concept of power factor (PF). Assuming ...
