A Power can be measured by this method only for star connected loads

B When two wattmeters have equal readings power factor is 0.5.

C When power factor is 1, one of the wattmeters readings is zero

D When the two wattmeter read equal and opposite, p.f. is zero.

ANS:D - When the two wattmeter read equal and opposite, p.f. is zero.

When p.f. is zero, active power is zero and the two redaings are equal and opposite.
