Active, Reactive & Apparent Power | You’ll not get an easier explanation than this| TheElectricalGuy

[@markleonhardt241]

I have been in the electrical engineering field for over 30 years, this was the most straightforward explanation I have seen. Well done.

Hello engineer

[@soundar4270]

This is the very basic, you simply tarnish the image of your experience

[@raakeshmagesh2452]

@@soundar4270 sorry bro.. He just said the explanation is straightforward. I don't see anything which tarnished his experience here.

@@raakeshmagesh2452 I am Mechanical Engineer working in 500 MW Thermal power plant. It was taught during 1st month of our Training calendar. When Mechanical guys are able to understand the basic concept, I don't think , It will be tough for experienced guys to understand the concept.

This is the best explanation of active, reactive and apparent power that I ever saw or hear. Thank you for this and other explanations on your channel. Please continue in same manner.

[@ExcitedRoboticArm-ve3ml]

The best explanation I have ever seen.I am a EEE student, I watch your all videos which are awesomely awesome. I want a video about "The working principle of three phase induction motor with basic". May Allah give you long life brother.

[@mdakramali2156]

being an indian am proud of you bro.. really very good explanation iam going to suggest my all friends to watch your videos... god bless you bro.

[@csri9116]

great presentation. I wish I had these videos on the Internet when I was going to school!? we spent countless hrs trying to understand this concept but with no one to explain correctly. students of electrical engineering are luck these days. keep up the good job!

[@johnmoor8839]

At last a clear explanation. Thank you.

Just awesome explanation sir.I completed my B.Tech Mechanical and Geaduate Marine Engineering but i clearly knows the thing after watching this video.Hatsoff to you sir

This is such a good explanation. You've managed to condense 60 pages of textbook into less than 15 minutes thank you sir

[@engenhologia]

This is the first time that I really understood active and reactive powers, thanks so much!

So very clear! Wish my EE profs had walked through this on day 1 in our Power class. Thank you...

[@luistimana2393]

Thanks for sharing your knowledge. There are two mistakes. Min. 6:35 - active power has a different shape A*(sin(theta))^2 Min. 13:25 - a power factor of 0.8 means: 80%=active power, 100%=apparent power, (apparent power≠active power+reactive power; apparent power^2=active power^2+reactive power^2)

[@袁佳诗]

I was thinking about the same thing. PF of 80% does not mean the reactive power is 20%. in fact Q/S will be more than 0.2 if run the calculation.

[@mustaphatijjanimuhammad4672]

with this types of great videos, i dont have to attend class for lectures, i will only attend class for exams and C.A cos my lecturer is right here in youtube.

[@bharathithamarai8344]

Now I am having a proper understanding of the power factor, active, reactive power. Thank u for the video

[@Ranjith4841]

At 13:23, 80% active power doesn't mean that remaining 20% would be reactive. Because, S is not equal to P + Q, but S is a vector sum of P and Q. If S = 100 kVA and Power factor = 0.8, then P = 80 kW and Q = 60 kVAR (not 20 kVAR, which is 20%).

[@madagalaharivardhan9412]

how 60 kVAR came explain plss

[@priyambandyopadhyay6575]

@@madagalaharivardhan9412 , use the vector addition. YOU WILL GET THE ANSWER. S= P+Q, DON't rely on this formula, use the triangle law of vector addition.

[@checkthisout7129]

Great video but gotta say that capacitor and inductor are linear elements unless their c and l values vary over time. That's because C=charge/voltage and L=flux/current which are linear relations. They can only alter the phase but not the frequency of the input. That's why you get a constant impedance when you divide voltage by current.
