Defination of reactive power

Defination of Reactive power :



Real power is that portion of apparent power,which is consumed resitive portion of the ckt. We can see d result of this consumed power,as heat,rotation,light etc.Reactive power is that portion of apparent power,which is not consumed by load. Reactive components store energy in positive half cycle, & release energy in negative half cycle. We can see this reactive power as magnetism in inductor & as voltage in capacitor.
