One complete series of values is called a cycle.
09/19/23 6
Instantaneous values are the values of the alternating quantities at any
instant of time.
The largest value reached in a half cycle is called the peak value or the
maximum value or the crest value or the amplitude of the waveform.
Since the AC voltage and current are time varying, their values are
given over particular time interval, generally for one time period.

RMS Value
The rms value of a time varying quantity is the equivalent dc value of that
quantity. (The rms value is also known as effective value.)
The rms value is obtained by taking square root of this mean value.
Let, V = Rms value of sinusoidal voltage or alternating voltage.
Now, by definition of rms value we can write,

The effective value of an alternating current is that current which will
produce the same heating effect as an equivalent direct current. The
effective value is called the root mean square (rms) value

In the case of a resistor, the current across the resistor is in phase with the voltage source.
But in the case of an inductor or a capacitor, the current either lags or leads the voltage
source by a certain value.
In order to relate the current and the voltage in the latter case, we use the concept of
phasors and phasor diagram.

Basically a rotating vector, simply called a “Phasor” is a scaled line whose length
represents an AC quantity that has both magnitude (“peak amplitude”) and direction
(“phase”) which is “frozen” at some point in time. ... Then a Phasor is a quantity that
has both “Magnitude” and “Direction”.

Power, Energy and Power Factor in AC Circuits
i.e., the power is the product of voltage and current. In circuits excited by
dc sources the voltage and current are constant and so the power in
constant. This constant power is called average power or power and it is
denoted by P.
In circuits excited by ac sources, the voltage and current are sinusoidal
quantities which varies with time. When voltage and current are time varying
quantities, the power is also a time varying quantity.
For time varying quantities, the power is defined as average over a period of
time. Since the average value of sinusoidal voltage and current are zero, we can
take, the rms value of voltage and current.
We know that, the rms values of voltage and current are complex and so the
power is also complex. “The complex power is denoted by S and it is defined as
the product of rms voltage and the conjugate of rms current”.

The real part of S is called active power or simply power. The imaginary
part of S is called reactive power. The power is denoted by P and expressed in the
units of watts, W. The reactive power is denoted by Q and expressed in the units
of volt-ampere-reactive, VAR.

In ac circuits, the phase angle ϕ may be positive, zero or negative.
(Remember that ϕ is phase difference between V and I)
When ϕ is positive,
• the current lags voltage.
• the circuit is inductive.
• the active power is positive.
• the reactive power is positive.
When ϕ is zero,
• the current is in-phase with voltage.
• the circuit is resistive.
• the active power is positive.
• the reactive power is zero.
When ϕ is negative,
• the current leads the voltage.
• the circuit is capacitive.
• the active power is positive.
• the reactive power is negative.

The ratio of active power and apparent power is defined as power factor”.
The power factor is a measure of active power in the apparent power.

Power in a resistor
Rms value of voltage across resistance, V = V ∠0°

The instantaneous value of power in the resistance is given by the product of the
instantaneous value of voltage and current in the resistance.
Instantaneous power,
Instantaneous power is

the instantaneous power is

Three-phase systems
Advantages of three-phase systems over single-phase supplies
include:
(i) For a given amount of power transmitted through a system, the
three-phase system requires conductors with a smaller cross sectional
area. This means a saving of copper (or aluminium) and thus the original
installation costs are less.
(ii) The instantaneous power in a three-phase system can be constant
(not pulsating).
(iii) It is also used to drive large motors and other heavy loads.
