Of the 'balanced' what?
yes.
yes, it is possible. in fact in power systems all the generators do not run with same power factor.
When looking at power factor, it is the ratio of watts (true power) to VA. The power factor is how we measure power systems. A person with a low power factor like .26 will have a higher electricity bill.
not possible. power factor is an cosine angle between current and voltage...
Because a dynamometer is used to measure the mechanical power output of a motor or engine. There are ways of measuring the power factor directly, for example use a plug-in power and energy monitor.
VA is the measure of Complex Power in a system which includes Real power(Watts, KW, MW) and Reactive power.Direct answer to your question :VA = Power Factor * Real Power (W Or KW Or MW)
A cos meter is a device used to measure the power factor in an electrical circuit. It measures the phase difference between the voltage and current in an alternating current system, helping to assess the efficiency of power usage. A power factor close to 1 indicates efficient power usage, while lower values suggest energy wastage.
A resistor doesn't have a power factor. However, if a circuit is pure resistance in nature the power factor will be one when a voltage is applied and a current flows in the circuit. The power factor is a measure of the relative phases of the current and voltage in a circuit.

To improve the power factor
The power factor depends on the properties of the load, and if any power factor correction is done it has to happen at the load, so that the current in the transmission lines is reduced. Correcting the power factor at the sending end fails to address the problem.
