If we're talking about P=I/E keep in mind that it's polyphase DC, so resistance becomes reluctance.

What is Magnetic Reluctance - definition - Circuit Globe
[Search domain circuitglobe.com/what-is-magnetic-reluctance.html]
Definition: The obstruction offered by a magnetic circuit to the magnetic flux is known as reluctance. As in electric circuit, there is resistance similarly in the magnetic circuit, there is a reluctance, but resistance in an electrical circuit dissipates the electric energy and the reluctance in magnetic circuit stores the magnetic energy.
