Discussion on the physical interpretation of the reactive power Q is the subject of the paper. This power in common physical interpretation used to be associated with energy oscillation between the load and the supply source. The paper demonstrates that such interpretation is not correct. Just the opposite, the interpretation of the reactive power Q as an effect of energy oscillation is one of the major misinterpretations of power phenomena in electrical circuits. The Currents’ Physical Components (CPC) power theory is the main theoretical tool used in the discussion presented in this paper.
