Because a dynamometer is used to measure the mechanical power output of a motor or engine. There are ways of measuring the power factor directly, for example use a plug-in power and energy monitor.

What is a cos meter?
Power Factor Meter
What are the types of electrodynamometer?
power meter,power factor meter, frequency meter, volt meter ,watt meter ,voltage ampere meter,
What is single phase power factor meter?
Power Factor applies to all A.C.(alternating current) power supplies. It ma not be apparent when a purely resistive load is applied as this offers a PF of 1.0 but any other load type will have a power factor somewhere between 0.0 and 1.0.
How is the power factor meter connected?
power factor meters are connected across the supply
Why wattmeter measure the reactive power?
A watt meter will measure active power, not reactive power.
What is low power factor watt meter?
A wattmeter reads the true power of a load, regardless of its power factor.
Why VAR meter does not measure real and apparent power?
A VAr meter only measures the reactive (imaginary) power. Apparent power is a combination of real and reactive power; thus having a VAr meter will not suffice to measure apparent power. Likewise, because the VAr meter only measures reactive power, it does not provide any information on real power.
What can be power output of dynamo?
From a few watts as in your cycle dynamo, to tens of megawatts for a power station.
Is it possible to measure the power factor of the balanced?
Of the 'balanced' what?
What is the function of watt meter?
The wattmeter is an instrument to measure the electrical power.
What mean power factor 0.26 lead?
When looking at power factor, it is the ratio of watts (true power) to VA. The power factor is how we measure power systems. A person with a low power factor like .26 will have a higher electricity bill.
Is dynamo a prefix?
No, the word dynamo is derived from the Greek word dynamis meaning power.
