  • Abstract
    The single-phase and polyphase definitions of reactive power are considered in this article. It is shown that the single-phase definition is unsatisfactory with complex waves. The polyphase definition is better, but requires independent recognition of distortion and mesh distribution. A distinction is made between fictitious power and reactive power.
