#164726 - Considerations
Responding to: ???'s previous message
First:
The equation I gave for power factor calculation does not calculate cos.

Second:
You can not divide a instant power value for an average apparent value.

If the site time allows I wil prove the equation.

V=v.sinwt
I=I.sin(wt-teta)

p=v.i=V.I.sinwt.sin(wt-teta) or

p=V.I.sinwt[sinwt.cos(teta)-sin(teta).coswt]

after simplify

p=(V.I/2).[cos(teta)-cos(2wt).cos(teta)-sin(2wt).sin(teta)]

After integrating for half a period cos(2wt) and sin(2wt) will be zero! So you will have the equation I gave.
