A wattmeter has two current coils connected in parallel, each having a resistance of 1.2 The wattmeter
is connected in a circuit to measure power with its potential coil on the supply side. The reading on the
wattmeter is 200W and the reading on the ammeter connected in series with the coil is 4A. Calculate
power loss in the wattmeter, true load power and percentage due to wattmeter connections.
