Power factor is the cosine of the angle by which the load current lags or leads the supply voltage. It is expressed as a per-unit value: e.g. 0.8; in the past it has been expressed as a percentage value , e.g. 80%.
power consumption of a 2 ton ac will be in the range 2-3kw.so if we assume the power factor as 0.8 then power will be 100kw.therefore for 2kw power consumption we can install 50 units ans for 3kw we ca install 33 units by cosidering safety factor of 100%.if the safety factor is 80%..we can install 40 units -26 units respectively..... santosh.andhra pradesh
PF units, or power factor units, refer to a measurement of the efficiency with which electrical power is converted into useful work output. The power factor is a dimensionless number between 0 and 1, representing the ratio of real power (used to perform work) to apparent power (total power in the circuit). A power factor of 1 indicates maximum efficiency, while lower values signify wasted energy, often due to reactive power in inductive or capacitive loads. Understanding and managing power factor is crucial for optimizing energy consumption and reducing electricity costs in industrial and commercial settings.
You can mutiply or divide the units to find the answer.
Inductive load where current lags voltage to keep the power factor low thus increasing the consumption of more electrical units of supply provider. This is since an inductive load draws reactive power as well with active power. Reactive component is watt less power drawn from the source. We use only active part of the source. But pays from active+reactive parts. This low power factor also effects the other systems in the circuit virtually making the cables under sized by heating them
Watts and Volts are different units. It is like asking how many apples are there in 6 oranges. Watts = Volts x Amps x Power Factor Power Factor ranges from zero to one.
Use the formula: power = voltage x current x power factor If you don't know the power factor, assume it is 1 - this is close enough for many devices. In units: power (in watts) = voltage (in volts) x current (in amperes)
The conversion factor between imperial temperature units (Fahrenheit) and metric temperature units (Celsius) is 5/9.

Organelles are tiny cell sized organs. The substance that runs through these tiny cell sized organs are commonly called sub-units.
Depends on the type of UPS Line interactive units will consume 1000VA but only deliver 700VA to load double conversion units 1000VA but only deliver 850VA to load It is better to treat the VA as unity Power factor when calculating the size of supply IE 1000VA = 1000watts if you know the power factor of the equipment you are going to supply you can get the wattage like this 1000 x Power factor (ie 0.8)=watts (800)
Identify the quantities you have and the unit conversion factor needed. Set up a conversion factor with the units you want to convert to on top and the units you want to convert from on the bottom. Multiply the given quantity by the conversion factor to cancel out the unwanted units and obtain the desired units. Check that the units in your final answer are correct and make sense.
Multiply by 1.00 . The same factor also produces greater units.
