What is Power Factor- Why Does it Matter
Power factor is the ratio between usable power and total power consumed. When it drops too low, it means your electrical systems are drawing more power than they need to — increasing demand charges and reducing overall efficiency.
Low power factor can be caused by:
- Inductive loads like motors, pumps, HVAC, and machinery
- Poor or ageing power factor correction equipment
- Imbalanced or fluctuating loads
Undetected faults in the electrical system
What We Look for in a Power Factor Inspection
Our inspections are designed to identify and address power quality issues before they impact your site’s performance or profitability. We assess:
- Power factor levels across phases and load types
- Performance of existing correction equipment (capacitor banks, controllers)
- Signs of harmonic distortion or voltage instability
- Inefficiencies or imbalances in the electrical load
- Condition of switchboards and associated metering infrastructure
We use real-time metering, data logging, and visual inspections to provide a clear view of your system’s performance.
Repairs and On-the-Spot Fixes
Where possible, we carry out minor repairs during the inspection to restore functionality or address safety concerns immediately — without the need for a follow-up visit. This helps reduce downtime and keeps your systems operating smoothly.
Our team is equipped to handle common issues on the spot, including:
- Replacing blown capacitors or faulty components
- Repairing wiring or loose connections
- Adjusting load settings for better phase balance
- Cleaning, securing, and tightening equipment inside switchboards
These immediate repairs can often make a noticeable difference in power factor performance. For more complex issues that require specialised components or broader system upgrades, we’ll provide a detailed quote along with clear recommendations for the next steps.

Why Power Factor Inspections Are Worth It
A poor power factor doesn’t just waste electricity — it can cost your business significantly in the form of higher demand charges, equipment wear, and supplier penalties. Regular inspections help you identify issues early and keep your systems operating efficiently, safely, and within contract requirements. Here’s why it pays to stay on top of your power factor:
- Reduce energy costs by cutting unnecessary demand charges
- Avoid penalties from energy suppliers for poor power factor performance
- Improve efficiency across your entire electrical system
- Extend equipment life by reducing stress on motors and electrical infrastructure
- Support compliance with your supply contract and WHS responsibilities
