Empowering Green Energy Change
Many commercial businesses require the use of pumps, refrigeration units, air conditioning systems, lighting systems and the like which are no different than most homes however in terms of size their requirements mean super sized systems with expensive power bills.
When the power switch is turned on, a stationary motor acts as short circuit causing a much higher than normal current to flow. As time passes the magnetic field builds up and the motor starts to rotate and reaches steady state rpm and the current drops down to normal values.
As mentioned above, the current passing through the current coil of the Energy-meter installed by the power distributor to monitor power consumption is the algebraic aggregate of the individual resistive, inductive, and capacitive currents flowing in different loads of the household
Since the currents flowing in inductive and capacitive loads are half a cycle out of phase, it is possible to make their sum zero at any particular time by adjusting their magnitudes, consequently reducing the total current magnitude flowing through the Energy-meter (kW-hour meter) installed by the local distributors to monitor energy consumed by a subscriber.
