Textbook Question
Chapter 3, Problem 3.11P
In later years, motors improved and could be run directly from a 60 Hz power supply. As a result, 25 Hz power systems shrank and disappeared. However, there were many perfectly good working 25 Hz motors in factories around the country that owners were not ready to discard. To keep them running, some users created their own 25 Hz power in the plant using motor-generator sets. A motor-generator set consists of two machines connected on a common shaft, one acting as a motor and the other acting as a generator. If the two machines have different numbers of poles but exactly the same shaft speed, then the electrical frequency of the two machines will be different due to Equation (3-34). What combination of poles on the two machines could convert 60 Hz power to 25 Hz power?

Assume that a building manager instructed you to install a water heater. The specs on the water heater nameplate reveals the following 240V, 2PH, 60HZ, 5.7KW. The manager insisted for the installation to be done with 10 AWG copper THWN-2 conductor, the length of run is 1200 FT away from the service panel. Calculate the voltage after the installation.
