Which of the following load is responsible for lower power factor of supply system__________?

Correct answer: A. induction motors

  • A. induction motors
  • B. resistive loads
  • C. synchronous Motors
  • D. all of the above

Explanation

Induction motors draw magnetizing reactive power, which lowers the supply power factor. Resistive loads operate near unity power factor, while overexcited synchronous motors can improve power factor.
