Question
Q1 (a) A balanced delta connected load of (10 + j3)N is connected to a 3-phase,
415V,50HZ supply.
Draw the circuit diagram, indicating VRN, VRY and all line currents, and
from this calculate:
(i)
(ii)
(iii)
The 3 load phase currents (IRY, IYB and IBr).
The 3 line currents (IR, Iy and Is).
The total real power and power factor at the 3 phase supply.
(b) An unbalanced 4 wire star connected load consisting of the phase
impedances Zrs (15+j5)N, Zys (10+j0)N and ZBs (18-j6)N is connected to a
3-phase, 440V, 50HZ supply. Draw the circuit diagram including the
implementation of a 2 wattmeter power measurement and from this:
(i)
(ii)
Calculate the 3 line currents (IR, Iy and IB).
Construct a scaled phasor diagram and using this or otherwise
determine the star/neutral current ISN. Include VRY and VrB on
the phasor diagram.
Calculate the necessary wire diameter for the star/neutral
connection to achieve a current density of 3A/mm?.
(iii)
(c) Determine the total real supply power (W) for Q1(b) based on the 2
wattmeter measurements.
