The line currents in amperes in phases a, b and c respectively are 500 +j150, 100 – j600 and – 300 + j600 referred to the same reference vector with phase sequence of abc. Find the symmetrical component of currents.

Ia₀ = (100+j50) AIa₁ = (146.41+ j65.47) AIa₂ = (546.41-j165.47) A
Ia₀ = (100+j50) AIa₁ = (546.41+j165.47) AIa₂ = (-146.41-j65.47) A
Ia₀ = (100+j50) AIa₁ = (200+ j107.75) AIa₂ = (200-j107.75) A
Ia₀ = (100+j50) AIa₁ = (546.41+ j165.47) AIa₂ = (546.41-j165.47) A

In a 3-phase, 4-wire, 400/230 V system, a lamp (L1) of 100 W is connected to one phase and neutral and a lamp (L2) of 150 W is connected to the second pahse and neutral. If the neutral wire is disconnected accidently, then

100 W lamp (L1) becomes dim and 150 W lamp (L2) becomes brighter
100 W lamp (L1) becomes brighter and 150 W lamp (L2) becomes dim
both 100 W lamp (L1) and 150 W lamp (L2) becomes dim
both 100 W lamp (L1) and 150 W lamp (L2) becomes brighter
