Referring to the power triangle, the hypotenuse S is a measure of the loading on the dis-
tribution system, and the side P is a measure of the useful power delivered. It is therefore
desirable to have S as close to P as possible, that is, to make the angle 0 approach zero. Since
pf=cosé, the power factor should approach unity. For the usual case of an inductive
load, it is often possible to improve the power factor by placing capacitors in parallel with
the load. Note that since the voltage across the load remains the same, the useful power P
also does not change. Since the power factor is increased, the current and apparent power
decrease, and a more efficient utilization of the power 4istribution system is obtained.
