Power Factor Panel Option (Apfcr)
Active power used in KWH = VICOS Ø
Where V - Voltage I - Current drawn Ø - Angle between voltage & current.
The cos Ø is defined as power factor. As the maximum value of cos Ø is 1, maximum value of power factor would be 1. With low power factor, any electrical system draws more current for same power. Electrical authority imposes penalty, if power factor is less than a minimum standard.
