Q3) A 2-wire D.C distributor AB, 1000 meters long is fed at A at 400 V and loads of 50 A, 100 A and 150 A are tapped off from C, D and E which are at a distance of 200 m, 500 m and 800m from point A, respectively. The distributor is also loaded uniformly at the rate of 1 A/m. If the resistance of distributor per meter (go and return) is 0.0001 2, calculate: the voltage at point B and at point D.

Q3)
A 2-wire D.C distributor AB, 1000 meters long is fed at A at 400 V and loads of 50 A, 100 A and
150 A are tapped off from C, D and E which are at a distance of 200 m, 500 m and 800 m from
point A, respectively. The distributor is also loaded uniformly at the rate of 1 A/m. If the resistance
of distributor per meter (go and return) is 0.0001 2, calculate: the voltage at point B and at point D.
