400MVA power is transmitted with 380kV voltage and 18.1948 degree power angle with the help of a 500 km long power transmission line. For this transmission line, the loss should not be more than 2.4% of the nominal active power. The resistivity of the conductor is 2.85*10^-2 (ohm*mm^2/m) In this case; a) How many amperes is the phase-phase current value in the line? B) How many ohms is the resistance of one phase of the line? C) What is the cross section of a phase in the line, in mm^2?
