Can we get the P and Q values from the voltage phasor and the current phasor straightaway by multiplying them together? We will try. Let V = Vrms∠φv V rms be the voltage phasor and I = Irms∠φi A rms be the current phasor; both specified as rms quantities. Then,
We are not able to identify P or Q in the real and imaginary parts of this quantity since we know that P = VrmsIrms cos(φv – φi) and Q = VrmsIrms sin(φv – φi), but this observation prompts us to try VI* instead of VI
