What is the power factor of RLC circuit?


Open in App
Solution

Power factor of RLC circuit:

  1. An alternating current circuits' power factor is the ratio of true power dissipation to apparent power dissipation.
  2. The power factor of an RLC circuit indicates how close the circuit is to expending all of its power.
  3. Power factor is also the resistance to impedance ratio of an LCR circuit.
  4. The power factor of an LCR circuit is the resistance to the total impedance ratio of the circuit.
  5. The magnitude of the phasor sum of the resistance, capacitive reactance, and inductive reactance is the total impedance.
