| Which type of power in an AC circuit is measured in volt-ampere (VA)?
A. Apparent power
B. Active power
C. Reactive power
D. Power factor
Please scroll down to see the correct answer and solution guide.
Right Answer is: A
SOLUTION
Apparent power (S) = VI and it is measured in VA
An active power or real power (P) = VI cos ϕ and it is measured in Watts
Reactive power (Q) = VI sin ϕ and it is measured in VAR
