Difference between True, Reactive, and Apparent power

True, reactive, and apparent powers are three type of power in electric circuits. In this article you’ll learn all the basic concepts related to true, reactive, and apparent power. Basics of Reactive Power We know that reactive loads such as inductors and capacitors dissipate zero power, yet the fact that they drop voltage and draw … Read more

How many types of AC motors are there

Brodally classifying AC motors are of two types: Synchronous motors: Synchronous motors are those motors in which* the rotation of the shaft is synchronized with the frequency of the supply current Asynchronous motors: These are the electrical motors whose rotor rotates at the speed lesser than the synchronous speed. Also see: Synchronous Motor MCQ Induction … Read more

Reserve Capacity Formula with Solved Example

reserve-capacity

Reserve capacity of a power plant is defined as the Plant capacity minus maximum demand of the plant. Mathematically, Reserve capacity formula = Plant Capacity – Maximum Demand Numerical Problem The capacity of a power plant is 50 MW while the maximum demand of is 42 MW. Calculate the reserve capacity. Reserve capacity = Plant … Read more
