When the power factor is 1, all the energy supplied by the source is consumed by the load. Power factors are usually stated as "leading" or "lagging" to show the sign of the phase angle.
Capacitive loads are leading (current leads voltage), and inductive loads are lagging (current lags voltage).
Hope it helps...
