AC - Active, Reactive and Apparent Power

Calculate active, reactive, and apparent power in AC electrical circuits for single-phase, three-phase, and DC systems. Active power represents real power consumption, reactive power represents imaginary power in capacitive/inductive loads, and apparent power is the total power supplied to the circuit.
