QUESTION:
Consider a simple positive phase sequence, three-phase, three-wire system operated at 50 Hz and with a balance load. Each phase voltage of 240 V is connected across a load composed of a series-connected \(50\ \Omega\) and 500 mH combination. Calculate (a) each line current; (b) the power factor of the load; (c) the total power supplied by the three-phase source.
ANSWER:Step 1 of 6
(a)
The phase voltages are,
To get the line current the impedance needs to be calculated. Calculate the reactance of the load due to inductance,
The total impedance is,
