Power factor correction: A guide for the plant engineer
For example, if you had a boring mill that was operating at 100 kW and the apparent power consumed was 125 kVA, you would divide 100 by 125 and come up with a power factor of 0 .80 . Figure 3. kVA power Figure 4. Power triangle Note: A right power triangle is often used to illustrate the relationship between kW, kVAR and kVA . PF = = cosine θ
