Constantin Budeanu (28 February 1886 – 27 February 1959) was a Romanian electrical engineer who contributed to the analysis of electric networks states and the SI system of units.

He was born in Buzău. In 1903 he was admitted at the School of Bridges, Roads and Mines, obtaining his engineering diploma in 1909. He then studied electricity in Paris with a V. Adamachi scholarship.

Budeanu proposed the unit electric reactive power (the term var) and he introduced the concept of deformed power in electric networks.^[1]
