Why?
Less drop in the supply.
Yes, we've already discussed I^2*R drops, but those depend on
the wire used, too. The poster to whom I responded seemed to
imply there was more to it.
And that's not really the efficiency of the motor, per se, but
the efficiency of the delivery system.

better also. Less current draw during startup also.
Hi,
Why? Power factor!
Do explain!
Indeed.
