H. W.: The cost of a 2-core feeder cable, including installation is (90 a + 20) per meter and the interest and depreciation charges are 10 per cent. The cable is 2 km in length and cost of energy is 4% per unit. The maximum current in the feeder is 250 A and the demand is such that the current copper loss is equivalent to what would be produced by the full flowing for 6 months. If the resistance of a conductor of 1 square cm and 1 km length is 0.173 Q, calculate the most economical cross-sectional area.

A two wire DC distributor AB, 1000 meter long, is supplied from both ends, 240 V at A and 242 V at B. There is a concentrated load of 200 A at a distance of 400 meter from A and a uniformly load 1.0 A/m between the midpoint and end B. Determine (i) the current fed at points A and B (ii) the point of minimum potential and (iii) voltage and this point. Consider cable resistance as 0.005 ohm per 1000 meter each core.
