It is therefore desirable to have S as close to P as possible, that is, to make the angle 0 approach zero. Since pf=cosé, the power factor should approach unity. For the usual case of an inductive load, it is often possible to improve the power factor by placing capacitors in parallel with the load. Note that since the voltage across the load remains the same, the useful power P also does not change. Since the power factor is increased, the current and apparent power decrease, and a more efficient utilization of the power 4istribution system is obtained.
