A d.c. distributor (ring main type) TWXYZ is supplied by 230V at node T. The different segment resistances (including go and return) are labelled as (in kilo-ohms): TW = 0.1x 10^-3; WX = 0.05 x 10^-3; XY = 0.01 x 10^-3; YZ = 0.025 x 10^-3 and ZT = 0.075 x 10^-3. The loads supplies of 0.01 kA at W; 0.02 kA at X; 0.03 kA at Y and 0.01 kA at Z. Based on this information draw the labelled diagrams & calculate; i) Current magnitude and direction in each segment ii) Voltage at each load node If the nodes X and Z are further linked together by an interconnector of 0.28Ω resistance. Assume that the current outputs from the mains remain same. iii)Determinethenewdistributionofthecurrentandvoltageinthenetworkandcompareyouranswers with the previous results.
