Reactive power is positive in the case of the capacitor.(a) True(b) FalseThe question was posed to me at a job interview.My question is from Electric Motors topic in portion Braking of Electric Motors of Electric Drives

Answer»

Correct option is (B) False

The explanation is: The REACTIVE power is DEFINED as the product of the voltage, current, and sine of the difference between the phase angle of voltage and current. In the case of a capacitor, the voltage lags the current. The value of sine is NEGATIVE and reactive power is negative.
