Textbook Question
Chapter 19, Problem 2PA
You are working on a residential heat pump. The heat pump is connected to a 240-V, 60-Hz power line. The compressor has a current draw of 34 amperes when operating. The compressor has a power factor of 70%. The backup strip heat is rated at 10 kW. You need to know the amount of total current draw that will occur if the strip heat comes on while the compressor is operating.
