Answer (Detailed Solution Below)
Detailed Solution
Download Solution PDFPower Triangle
The power factor is given by:
\(cosϕ={P\over S}\)
where, cosϕ = Power factor
P = Active power
Q = Reactive power
Calculation
Given, ϕ = 60°
P = 600 W
\(tanϕ={Q\over P}\)
\(tan60={Q\over 600}\)
Q = 1039 VAR Lagging
If the value of reactive power was leading, then in the power triangle diagram the phasor of Q was in -ve Y direction.
