Power Quality Issues Basic Requirements for Critical Loads Is Vs Load Continuous, No Break in Power Voltage Regulation Sine wave Supply Isolation Constant Frequency Understanding Reactive Power and Power Factor Is Is R Vs Vs XL XL Vs R Imp. Phase Angle True Power(P) in Watts Reactive Power(Q) in VAR Is Displacement and True Power Factor Displacement Power Factor: “Ratio of the active power of the fundamental, in watts, to the apparent Power of the fundamental wave, in volt-amperes” True Power Factor: “Ratio of the total power, in watts, to the total voltamperes.
