The current flowing in to a balanced delta connected load through line 'a' is 10 A when the conductor of line ’b’ is open. With the current in line 'a' as reference, compute the symmetrical components of the line currents. Assume the phase sequence of ’abc’.

Ia₀ = 0 A.Ia₁ = (-1.66 + j2.88) A.Ia₂ = (1.66 + j2.88) A.
Ia₀ = 10 A.Ia₁ = (-1.66 + j2.88) A.Ia₂ = (1.66 + j2.88) A.
Ia₀ = 10 A.Ia₁ = (-5 + j2.44) A.Ia₂ = (5 - j2.44) A.
Ia₀ = 0 A.Ia₁ = (-5 + j2.88) A.Ia₂ = (5 - j2.88) A.
