### Three-Phase Balanced Load Analysis

#### Problem Description
1) The load on a 460 V, 60 Hz, Y-connected, balanced three-phase source consists of:
- Three equal Y-connected impedances of \(100 + j100 \, \Omega\) 
- Three equal Δ-connected impedances of \(300 - j300 \, \Omega\)

Draw the circuit diagram, and compute the line current, power, and the power factor for the total load.

#### Solution Outline

1. **Circuit Diagram**
   - Draw the Y-connected and Δ-connected loads connected to the three-phase source.

2. **Impedance Calculations**
   - Calculate the total equivalent impedance for the Y-connected and Δ-connected loads.
   
3. **Line Current Calculation**
   - Apply Ohm’s Law to find the line current.
   
4. **Power Calculation**
   - Calculate the total real, reactive, and apparent power.
   
5. **Power Factor Calculation**
   - Compute the overall power factor for the combined load.

#### Step-by-Step Solution

1. **Draw the Circuit Diagram**
   - The Y-connected load will have three impedances of \(100 + j100 \, \Omega\) connected to each phase.
   - The Δ-connected load will have three impedances of \(300 - j300 \, \Omega\) connected phase-to-phase.

2. **Calculate Equivalent Impedance**

   - Y-connected impedance: 
     \[
     Z_Y = 100 + j100 \, \Omega
     \]
   
   - For Δ-connected impedance \(Z_\Delta = 300 - j300 \, \Omega\), convert to an equivalent Y-connected impedance \(Z'_\Delta\):
     \[
     Z'_\Delta = \frac{Z_\Delta}{3} = \frac{300 - j300}{3} = 100 - j100 \, \Omega
     \]

3. **Total Equivalent Y-Impedance**

   - The total equivalent impedance per phase \(Z_{eq}\) (sum of Y and equivalent Y of Δ):
     \[
     Z_{eq} = Z_Y + Z'_\Delta = (100 + j100) + (100 - j100) = 200 \, \Omega
     \]

4. **Line Current**

   - Line-to-neutral voltage \(V_{LN}\):
     \[
     V_{LN} = \frac{
