What is power factor? In this video we learn all about power factor starting at the basics. We cover, what is power factor, what is good and bad power factor, how to fix bad power factor, what is leading power factor, what is lagging power factor, how capacitors, inductors and resistors affect circuits as well as how to calculate the power factor correction.
