What is voltage stabilizer? How does it work?
Voltage stabilizer is an electric device used to automatically maintain a constant voltage level when their is constant fluctuations in the incoming voltage. A voltage stabilizer acts as a safeguard shield and reduces chances of malfunction by offering a stable voltage output to the load at its output terminals irrespective of any variations in the […]

How to calculate Power Factor?
In electrical engineering, the Power Factor (PF) is a ratio of the real power measured in watts absorbed by the load to the apparent power measured in volt-ampere flowing in the AC (alternate current) circuit. Power factor is a dimensionless number in the closed interval of -1 to 1, this means the value will always […]
