The current flowing to a balanced delta connected load through line 'a' is 15 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'.
Symmetrical breaking current: It is the rms value of a a.c component of the current in the pole at the instant of contact separation.
Asymmetrical breaking current: It is the rms value of the total current comprising the a.c and d.c components of the current in the pole at the instant of contact separation.
