Abstract :
The author comments on the paper by W.E. Kazibwe (see ibid., vol.18, no.8, 1998). The author attempts to address the problem of common usage of the bad terminology, ´imaginary power´ and ´reactive power´. He gives the correct terminology which should be volt-amperes reactive. He then discusses the concept of volt-amperes reactive.
