Why do Electrolytic Capacitors fail and even Explode?
Power Factor of an AC circuit or a system is defined as the ratio of active power (or real power) to apparent power. It is that fraction of total apparent power, which is consumed in doing a work, conversion into heat or some other form of energy.
