What is power measurement?
o Power: β Indication of the energy usage per time unit (rate of work)
β Expressed in Joule per second (SI), or Watt (more common)
β Electrical power: π π‘ = π£ π‘ β π π‘
o DC power β ππ·πΆ = ππ·πΆ β πΌπ·πΆ
o AC power β Instantaneous power: π π‘ = π£ π‘ β π π‘
β RMS values power: π π‘ = ππ ππ β πΌπ ππ β cosπ β’ RMS= Root Mean Square π = the phase shift between voltage and current

Why is power important?
VS
o Burning 1kg of coal vs 1kg of TNT

Why is power important?
o Burning 1kg of coal vs 1kg of TNT β the coal has a lot more energy than the TNT, but
β the TNT has a lot more power than the coal β’ It takes much longer to burn all the coal than all the TNT
o Energy is accumulated power over time β The heat generated until all coal is burned up, or
β All power into the battery of a phone until it is fully charged
o Power is the amount of energy per time unit β The pressure waves generated by the TNT explosion, or
β The charge-speed of your phone while charging (% per minute)
