Voltage using Power Factor Formula Elements

Variables
Voltage
Voltage is used to determine the value of the potential difference between terminals where alternating current flows.
Symbol: V
Measurement: Electric PotentialUnit: V
Note: Value can be positive or negative.
Real Power
The Real Power P is the average power in watts delivered to a load. It is the only useful power. It is the actual power dissipated by the load.
Symbol: P
Measurement: PowerUnit: W
Note: Value should be greater than 0.
Power Factor
Power Factor is defined as the ratio of the actual electrical power dissipated by an AC circuit to the product of the r.m.s. values of current and voltage.
Symbol: cosΦ
Measurement: NAUnit: Unitless
Note: Value should be less than 1.000001.
Current
Current or AC is an electric current which periodically reverses direction and changes its magnitude continuously with time in contrast to direct current which flows only in one direction.
Symbol: I
Measurement: Electric CurrentUnit: A
Note: Value can be positive or negative.
