A three-phase load consists of three identical impedances connected in delta. The impedances have a value of (100 + j40) Q. The supply voltage is 440 V. The two- wattmeter method is used to determine the total power drawn by the load. One wattmeter, W₁, has its current coil connected in the blue line and its voltage coil connected between the yellow and blue lines. Calculate: a) The power measured by each wattmeter b) The power factor of the load using the wattmeter readings c) The apparent power supplied to the load d) The reactive power drawn by the load.

Question
A three-phase load consists of three identical impedances connected in delta. The
impedances have a value of (100 + j40) Q. The supply voltage is 440 V. The two-
wattmeter method is used to determine the total power drawn by the load. One wattmeter,
W₁, has its current coil connected in the blue line and its voltage coil connected between
the yellow and blue lines. Calculate:
a) The power measured by each wattmeter
b) The power factor of the load using the wattmeter readings
c) The apparent power supplied to the load
d) The reactive power drawn by the load.
