A distributor cable in the form of a ring main ABCDEA, supplies loads of 20, 60, 30, and 40 A taken at the points B, C, D and E respectively, the feeding point being at A. The resistances of the sections are AB=0.1 S2, BC= 0.152, CD=0.12, DE = 0.05 2 and EA = 0.1 2. The points E and C are connected by a cable having a resistance of 0.3 2. Calculate the current in each section of the network.

Question
A distributor cable in the form of a ring main ABCDEA, supplies loads of 20, 60, 30, and 40 A taken
at the points B, C, D and E respectively, the feeding point being at A. The resistances of the sections
are AB = 0.1 S2, BC= 0.15 , CD=0.12, DE = 0.05 2 and EA = 0.1 2. The points E and Care
connected by a cable having a resistance of 0.3 2. Calculate the current in each section of the
network.
