Where does the Reactive Power go? TheElectricalGuy

In many cases, reactive power generated by a system is more than what it needs! The question is where is this additional reactive power going? Confused? Well in this video we are going to discuss about where does this reactive power go in details. So, to know about it more you need to watch the video.

Sir: Just as wonderful the second time watching this video.

To make it even more easier to understand. Reactive power is never produced or consumed, we just say this for our convenience to describe whether load is more like inductor or more like capacitor.
Reactive power is just fluctuation of energy in form of electric or magnetic fields. When you apply voltage to inductor, it creates a magnetic field. Creating magnetic field consumes electrical energy. When you remove voltage, magnetic field of inductor dissipates back into electrical energy. Same thing with capacitor, but in capacitor electrical field is created. So in 60Hz sinewave circuit capacitors and inductors create and dissipate electric and magnetic fields 60 times per second. Just like pouring water from glass to glass.
The main reason why we are interested in reactive power is the fact that reactive power creates current in wires, which heats up this wires, melt wires, trip breakers etc.
Sorry for bad english:)

The problems of effectively managing reactive power in transmission systems are significant, and add to the capital expenditure. This is one of the reasons why EHV DC lines are very attractive, especially for power transmission over longer distances, where inrush / charging losses and other line losses start to mount up. Also, effective management of long lines is a non-trivial exercise, and, although the switching / protection requirements of EHV DC are greater, this added cost is offset by reduced line losses, no need for VAR management, and the not insignificant problem of accurate phase matching, especially over long distance lines. For long distance, bulk transmission, I suspect DC may well be the future.

all of your videoes explain the confused problems very simple. thank you so much

[yarrammahendra]

U r explanation is very clear, thank u for making this vedio

[shubhankarmaitra]

thank you so much. i have a great belief on your knowledge and for this i search your videos for any problems solution related on electrical.

[habt-tube]

I can say all your tutorials are very useful. You are not only genius but also born to teach. Keep up your good work genius.

[rishabbhattacharya]

sir, thanks for clearing such a complex concept.

[vinodhambarde]

Sir, really feels learning something different. Thank u for explaining in in a simple way.

[zainulkhan]

u r a good explainer👍
Advice: u should try with KVAR digital meter with connection & show the reactive power on meter display to us

[mayankgautam]

Feels like learning something useful that is really present in the real world, while watching these videos. Thank you sir for such amazing explanations.

[engburreali]

Full respect sir 🙏 absolutely you are a good explainer and I like people such like this ❤️

[mohsinanwar]

Very informative you clear my concept so.very thanks

[badgujarshubham]

Wow thank you so much, sir can you tell us what’s a Mmf and how it’s forces to move flux

[enamulhaque]

I have similar another question once fault occurs where does this huge fault current go. Please also make a video on it

[mikeall]

There are still quite a few mechanical relays used in generation and distribution infrastructure, in North America.

[सुभाषयादव-खस]

How transformer or induction motor will use kVAR to produce magnetic field?please elaborate this phenomenon?

[lalitjoshi]

Sir...Your graphics are too clam and cool to understand and make perfect image of system..

Thankyou...

Thanks for the video. One question: Which power or powers does the electric company charge customers for? Do they charge us for true power or apparent power?

[rinkeetiwari]

Very informative and well explained !!
