Hi Everyone,
I know that a Motor/Generator, or I think I know, behaves like an inductor because inductors store energy in their magnetic fields.
What I want to make sure of or ask is does the Motor/Generator have a lagging power factor because it behaves like an inductor? Is that the only reason why?
Also, if I am wrong in my assumption then please tell me why it is a leading power factor.
Thank you.
