There is no SI symbol, as such, for power factor. As power factor is the cosine of the phase angle (the angle by which the load current leads or lags the supply voltage), power factor is normally written as 'cos' followed by the lower-case Greek letter we pronounce 'phi' (I've no idea how to type a Greek letter in this answer!).
