Refer to the circuit shown in Figure 7-21, all the both loads L1, L2, and L3 are connected to the alternator. Thus, the line voltages are equal.
Consider load 3:
Here, the load 3 is made by 3 capacitors and uses wye connection. In wye connection, the line voltage is equal to
Thus,
Calculate the phase current of the load 3
In wye connection, the phase current
Thus,
Here, the load 3 is pure capacitive, the voltage and current are 90° out of phase with each other. Thus, the power factor becomes zero.
Calculate the reactive power of load 3
Consider load 2:
Here, the load 2 is made by 3 inductors and uses delta connection. In delta connection, the line voltage is equal to phase voltage.

- Refer to the transformer shown in Figure 5-13 to answer the following questions. What is the turns ratio of the winding between points B and E as compared to the winding between points D and E? Figure 5-13 Autotransformer practice problems.arrow_forwardA 480-volt three-phase load is rated at 34.5 kVA. It is to be supplied with variable three-phase voltage. Because the load is continuous, the transformers ratings are to be increased by 1.25% of the rated load. Three variable autotransformers are used to supply this load.
