PF
Power factor. The absolute value is equal to cos
, but the
sign is '+' for inductive i.e. lagging current and '
' for
capacitive i.e. leading current.
P
m
Nominal power of the prime mover. (Used by reverse/under
power protection.)
PT
See VT
pu
Per unit. Depending of the context the per unit refers to any
nominal value. For example for overcurrent setting 1 pu =
1xIN.
Q
Reactive power. Unit = [var] acc. IEC
