Chapter 11 Problem 11.77

Question

In a balanced three-phase system, the source has an abcphase sequence, is wye-connected, and Van = 120 20 V rms. The source feeds two parallel loads, both of which are wye-connected. The impedance of load 1 is 8 + j6 . The complex power for the a phase of load 2 is 600 36 VA. Find the line current for the a phase and the total complex power of the source.

Solution

Step 1 of 3)

The first step in solving 11 problem number 77 trying to solve the problem we have to refer to the textbook question: In a balanced three-phase system, the source has an abcphase sequence, is wye-connected, and Van = 120 20 V rms. The source feeds two parallel loads, both of which are wye-connected. The impedance of load 1 is 8 + j6 . The complex power for the a phase of load 2 is 600 36 VA. Find the line current for the a phase and the total complex power of the source.
From the textbook chapter POLYPHASE CIRCUITS you will find a few key concepts needed to solve this.
