Change the polarity of reactive power #233

Closed tiyash-basu-frequenz closed 7 months ago

tiyash-basu-frequenz commented 7 months ago

This commit changes the polarity of reactive power in the protobuf definitions to follow the IEEE 1459-2010 standard definitions. In this standard, positive reactive power is inductive (current is lagging the voltage), and negative reactive power is capacitive (current is leading the voltage).
