    ASSIGNMENT QUESTIONS
    (Last date for submission:03/03/2018)
    1. Each phase of a three-phase alternator generates a voltage
    of 3810V and carries a maximum current of 300 A. Find the
    line currents, line voltage and total KVA capacity if the
    alternator is (a) Star Connected (b) Delta Connected.
    Ans: VL=6600V, IL=300A, power(capacity)= 3429 KVA

    2. Three 100 Ω resistors are connected first in star and then in


    delta across 415 V, 3- phase supply. Calculate the line and
    phase currents in each case and also the power taken from
    the source.
    Ans: Star IL=Ip=2.396A, P=1722.2W Delta IL=7.188A,
    Ip=4.15A Power= 5166.7W

    3. Unbalanced four wire, star connected load has balanced


    supply voltage of 400V. The load impedances are ZA=4+j8Ω,
    ZB=3+j4Ω and Zc=15+j10Ω. Calculate the line currents,
    neutral current and total power.
    Ans: IA=25.83∠ -63.43°, IB=46.2∠-173.13°A
    IC=12.82∠86.3° total power=11537w

    4. The two-wattmeter method produces wattmeter readings


    P1=1560W and P2=2100W when connected to a delta
    connected load. If the line voltage is 220V.
    Calculate : i)the per-phase average power 2)the per-phase
    reactive power 3) the power factor and 4) the phase
    impedance.
    Ans: i)1220w ii)-311.769 VAR iii)0.9688 leading
    iv)38.4346∠-14.355° Ω

    5. Obtain the readings of two wattmeters connected to a three-


    wire 120V system feeding a balanced delta-connected load
    with a load impedance of 12 ∠30 Ω. Assume either phase
    sequence. Find the phase power and compare the total
    power to the sum of the wattmeter readings.
    Ans:W1=2078.46W, W2=1039.23W, Pph=1039.23W
    Pt=3117.69W
