A) A factory has the following load with power factor of 0.9 lagging in each phase. Red phase 40 A, yellow phase 50 A and blue phase 60 A. If the supply is 400 V, three phase, four-wire, calculate the current in the neutral and the total active power. Draw a phasor diagram for phase and line quantities. Assume that, relative to the current in the red phase, the current in the yellow phase lags by 120° and that in the blue phase leads by 120°. B) Explain the advantage of connecting the low-voltage winding of distribution transformers in star.
