1200kVA, 6600V, 3phase, Y-connected alternator has an effective resistance of 0.4Ω and a reactance 0f 6Ω per phase. It delivers full load current at 0.8 lagging power factor at rated voltage. What will be the terminal voltage for the same excitation and load current, if the power factor is 0.8 leading? Use two decimal places.
