Question

State whether given statement is True or False
The circuit phase angle is the angle between the total current and the applied (source) voltage.

• A. True
• B. False

Answer 1

The correct option is A True

Phase angle is the angle between the total current and source voltage. It may be positive or negative depending on whether the source voltage leads or lags the circuit current. Phase angle of a purely resistive circuit is zero since the voltage and current are in phase.
