1. A MRT (Metro Rail Transit) car, 5km distance from Taft Station takes 100A over hard drawn copper trolley wire having a resistance of 0.270 per km. The rail and ground return wire have a resistance of 0.060 per km. (a) If the station supply voltage is 550V, what is the receiving end voltage at the car side? (b) If a line to ground fault occurs at the supply voltage causing a very high current of 500A, what is the new receiving end voltage at the car side?
