A balanced three-phase ∆- connected source has a line voltage 120 V. It is connected to a load via a three-wire transmission line. The per-phase impedance of the ∆-connected load is 30 + j120 Ω. The impedance of each wire of the transmission line is 2 + j4 Ω. How much power is dissipated by the load? How much power is dissipated in transmission line? Power factor of load?

Question

A balanced three-phase ∆- connected source has a line voltage 120 V. It is connected to a load via a three-wire
transmission line. The per-phase impedance of the ∆-connected load is 30 + j120 Ω. The impedance of each wire
of the transmission line is 2 + j4 Ω.
