A load supplied by a 3-wire d.c. distribution system takes a current of 600 A on the +ve side and 480 A on the −ve side. The resistance of the outer conductor is 0·015 Ω and that of the middle wire is 0·03 Ω. Determine the voltage at the load end between each outer and middle wire. Supply voltage is 500/250 V
