ssume that the two balanced loads in Fig. are supplied by an 840-V rms 60-Hz line. Load I is Y-connected with 30+ j40 S2 per phase, while load 2 is a balanced three-phase motor drawing 48 kW at a power factor of 0.8 lagging. Assuming the abc sequence, calculate: (a) the complex power absorbed by the combined load, (b) the kVAR rating of each of the three capacitors A-connected in parallel with the load to raise the power factor to unity, and (c) the current drawn from the supply at unity power factor condition.
