The per-unit (p.u.) system is a method used in electrical engineering, particularly in the analysis of power systems, to simplify calculations and comparisons. Instead of using actual electrical quantities (like volts, amperes, ohms, etc.), the per-unit system normalizes these values relative to a defined base value. This allows engineers to easily compare different systems or components, since all values are expressed in a uniform manner.
