I would just like to ask how the magnitude of current affect the kW-hr meter reading?
Given this scenario, increasing the power factor of a certain load (for example, 40-watt fluorescent lamp with initial power factor of about 0.40 lagging) to 0.90 lagging, how can this increase of power factor affect the power of the certain load, were in fact, only the apparent power and the current drawn are decreased, but the true power is still maintained?
Can increase of the power factor of the 40-watt lamp, for example, give energy-saving based on kw-hr meter reading? or can this increase in power factor of the load decrease kw-hr meter reading? IF YES, how can this be related?
Thank you! Thanks for the help......uuu
