A delta-connected balanced three-phase load is supplied from a three-phase, 400 V supply. The line current is 20 A and the power taken by the load is 10 kW. Find the power factor.
The neutral point of a generator is usually earthed to facilitate protection of the stator winding and associated system. Earthing also prevents damaging transient overvoltages in the event of an arcing earth fault or ferro resonance. For HV generators, impedance is usually inserted in the stator earthing connection to limit the magnitude of earth fault current.
