This paper advocates much needed definitions for the apparent power and for the power factor PF, in unbalanced polyphase circuits with sinusoidal waveforms. It is proved that the definition S2 = (V: + + V:)(Z; + I: + 1:) has a definite physical meaning, lending itself to a convenient resolution in positive, negative and zero sequence, nonactive and active powers. Zt is suggested to represent the power factor with the help of the ratio P+/S, where P+ is the positive sequence active power. The background of the power factor concept is discussed, including its historical development and its importance in the engineering economics of power systems. This study provides a thorough analysis of the current definitions and explores the implications of suggested revisions, ultimately aiming for a clearer understanding and application of power factor and apparent power in electrical engineering.
