In a dynamometer 3-phase power factor meter, the planes of the two moving coils are at_____________?

Correct answer: D. 120°

  • A. 0°
  • B. 60°
  • C. 90°
  • D. 120°

Explanation

A dynamometer three-phase power-factor meter uses two moving-coil systems positioned with their planes 120° apart. This angular displacement corresponds to the phase relationships needed to obtain the three-phase power-factor indication.
