    Power factor for VFD drives

    Dear Folks, Two issues are confusing me in regard of VFDs. 1. What is the Power factor of PWM type VFD type with Line choke (source side)? As DC link capacitor is there, and motor always take reactive power from capacitor, I assume unity power will maintain at line side. Anyone pl. confirm. 2...
