Dissipation Factor tan δ (DF)
Dissipation Factor tan δ is the ratio between the active and reactive power for a sinusoidal waveform voltage. It can be
thought of as a measurement of the gap between an actual and ideal capacitor.

Tan δ is measured with the same set-up used for the series capacitance ESC.
tan δ = ω x ESC x ESR where:
ESC = Equivalent Series Capacitance
ESR = Equivalent Series Resistance
