Instantaneous Power: p(t)
For AC circuits, the voltage and current are
v(t) = VM cos(t+v)
i(t) = IM cos(t+i)
The instantaneous power is simply their product
p(t) = v(t) i(t) = VM IM cos(t+v) cos(t+i)
= ½VM IM [cos(v- i) + cos(2t+v +i)]

• Recall that passive sign convention says:
P > 0, power is being absorbed
P < 0, power is being supplied

• Purely reactive circuit: P = 0
– Capacitors and inductors are lossless elements and
absorb no average power
– A purely reactive network operates in a mode in which
it stores energy over one part of the period and
releases it over another part

like the name: rms)

– For example, AC household outlets are
around 120 Volts-rms

Why RMS Values?
• The effective/rms current allows us to write
average power expressions like those used in dc
circuits (i.e., P=I²R), and that relation is really the
basis for defining the rms value
• The average power (P) is

RMS in Everyday Life
• When we buy consumer electronics, the
faceplate specifications provide the rms voltage
and current values
• For example, what is the rms current for a 1200
Watt hairdryer (although there is a small fan in a
hairdryer, most of the power goes to a resistive
heating element)?
• What happens when two hairdryers are turned
on at the same time in the bathroom?
• How can I determine which uses more
electricity---a plasma or an LCD HDTV?

Maximum Average Power Transfer
• To obtain the maximum average power transfer
to a load, the load impedance (ZL) should be
chosen equal to the complex conjugate of the
Thevenin equivalent impedance representing
the remainder of the network
ZL = RL + j XL = RTh - j XTh = ZTh*

• A low power factor requires more rms current for the
same load power which results in greater utility
transmission losses in the power lines, therefore utilities
penalize customers with a low pf

Power Factor Angle (ZL)
• power factor angle is v- i = ZL (the phase
angle of the load impedance)
• power factor (pf) special cases
– purely resistive load: ZL = 0°  pf=1
– purely reactive load: ZL = ±90°  pf=0

voltage, and load impedance

real/average power
– the phasor current that is in
phase with the phasor
voltage produces the real
(average) power
– the phasor current that is
out of phase with the
phasor voltage produces

More Power Terminology
• average power, P = Vrms Irms cos(v- i)
• apparent power = Vrms Irms
– apparent power is expressed in volt-amperes
(VA) or kilovolt-amperes (kVA) to distinguish it
from average power

– P is the real or average power
– Q is the reactive or quadrature power, which indicates
temporary energy storage rather than any real power
loss in the element; and Q is measured in units of
volt-amperes reactive, or var

Complex Power (S)
• This is really a return to phasor use of voltage and
current rather than just the recent use of magnitude and
rms values
• Complex power is expressed in units of volt-amperes like
apparent power
• Complex power has no physical significance; it is a
purely mathematical concept
• Note relationships to apparent power and power factor of
last section
