The distance of current travel from plant to house as per the given Fig 21-25
Answer to Problem 34P
Solution:
At the distance of , power loss will be 50%
Explanation of Solution
Given info:
As per fig 21-25
Power Plant
Delivered to step-up transformer at
Resistance per unit length
Formula to be used:
Calculation:
As it is a step-up transformer,which stepped up the voltage by a faster of 20 so that the current is stepped down by a faster of 20.
According to the current ratio formula (equation)
The power loss in the lines,
Power loss [given resistance is in per unit length]
