Hi, this is amit kulkarni fm Ahmednagar,maharashtra india,

i do energy audit in various sector such as foundries, cnc shops,machine shops,forging,colleges etc.

power factor =Real power/active power.

to calculate origional PF

u require some data like

1.consumption of instrument in kwh  (Ew)

2.consumption of reactive energy in kvarh (Eb)

3.working hrs.(t)

also u must know hp of insrument,rpm,efficiency.

Active energy power (P) = Ew/t.

origional pf = 1/√(Eb/Ew)+1 .

also u need any information @ power factor or energy saving pl mail me on powercop.auditors@gmail.com or powercop.general@gmail.com
