A 3-phase transmission line having a capacity of 10,000KVA
serves as a balanced load that draws 5,000kW at a lagging
power factor such that the transmission line is loaded to its
capacity. An additional load of induction motors operating at an
average pf of 0.80 is connected to the line. In order to make use
of the line to its full capacity in active power, a synchronous
condenser having losses of 300kW will be connected to the line.
What is the kVA rating of the synchronous motor required?
Draw the Phasor Diagram for Synchronous Motor.
