・
P
• The symbol
P
represents the active power of
the phase voltage
U
1
and the wire current
I
1
.
• The symbol
S
represents the apparent power of
the phase voltage
U
1
and the wire current
I
1
.
• The symbol
Q
represents the reactive power of
the phase voltage
U
1
and the wire current
I
1
.
• The active power
P
has no sign during
consumption and a negative sign during
generation.
• Due to the effects of measurement error
,
S
=|
P
|
and
Q
=0 are used when
S
<|
P
|.
