MGVCL Exam Paper (30-07-2021 Shift 2)
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.
Equivalent resistance of the circuit, Req = (12||18) + 8 Req = 7.2 + 8 Req = 15.2 ohm Source current = current through 8 ohm resistor, I = Vr/R8 I = 20/8 I = 2.5 A Supply votage V = I*Req V = 2.5*15.2 V = 38 V
