What is power load?

Base load power in a home is the energy consumed for day-to-day operation of the home, that is not used in response to the outside weather. Base Load is usually thought of Lights, Appliances, and Hot Water, but by extension it is all plug loads, pool pumps, well pumps, computers, etc. Base load is pretty much everything but the energy used for Heating and Cooling.

Divide Power Load by "Power Factor"


Why the power factor improves with the load?

Power factor doesn't necessarily 'improve with the load', but it is determined by the load.


What is difference between cold load and hot load?

hot load occurs when the power is high and the cold load occurs when yhe power is low


Why power factor can not be unity?

Power factor can be unity. If the load is purely resistive, then the load current and supply voltage are in phase, and the load will have unity power factor.


What does No-load voltage mean?

A no load voltage means the power level that is giving from the output pins power converter. This is when 0% load is given.


Does low load in transformer lead to low power factor?

Power factor is determined by the nature (resistive, inductive, capacitive) of a load, not whether it is a low load or a high load.


Why reactive power is named as reactive?

Actually reactive power is a power which flows in between load to source which is a reactive action of the power given from source to load.the given power to load will not be utilised fully.some power will be oscillating from load to source.this is called reactive power.


A series circuit has 100mA flowing through a 1.5kohm load What is the power dissipated by the load?

A series circuit has 100mA flowing through a 1.5kohm load. The power dissipated by the load is equivalent to 15 Watt. This is based on the formula, power is equals to square current times load.


Why is the power factor at no load less than full load?

That's not possible. The power factor is related to the phase difference between voltage and current on the line. "No load" means 'no current', so power factor is meaningless with no load. If you see a power factor, there must be a load, even if it's some device that you're not aware of.


How do you use electric power in inductive load?

The actual energy consumed in load is inductive load


Can a power factor be -23.4?

No, Power factor may not have a magnitude greater than 1. It represents the proportion of power used by the load as compare to the total power delivered to the load. If the load is able to store power, then some of the power delivered to the load will be stored and then returned back to the electricity supply (50 times a second, depending on your grid frequency).


What is load forecasting?

Load forecasting is used by power companies to anticipate the amount of power needed to supply the demand.
