Power factor correction
Power factor basically measures how effectively your business uses the electricity supplied to your site. A power factor of 1 (or unity) is excellent. A power factor between 0.9 and 1 ensures your business is using its energy effectively. A power factor of below 0.9 may mean a higher than necessary kVA demand. Your business may be using energy inefficiently, resulting in unnecessary expense charged to your electricity account.
