MGVCL Exam Paper (30-07-2021 Shift 3)
Two-wattmeter method is used to measure the power taken by a 3-phase induction motor on no load. The wattmeter readings are 400 W and -50 W. Calculate the reactive power taken by the load
Value of power factor is varies from 0 to 1. R→PF = 1 L→PF = 0 lag C→PF = 0 lead R-L→0 lag < PF < 1 R-C→0 lead < PF < 1 R-C-L→depends on value of R, L and C. PF = R/Z
