A farm house is located at the end of a country road in northern Michigan. The Thévenin impedance seen looking back into the power line from the electrical distribution panel is 0.2+j0.2 Ω. The Thévenin voltage is 240 V rms 60 Hz ac. A 2-hp 240-V-rms capacitor-start motor is used for pumping water. We want to estimate the voltage drop observed in the house when the motor starts. Typically, such a motor has a power factor of 75 percent and an efficiency of 80 percent at full load. Also, the starting current can be estimated as six times the full-load current. Estimate the worst-case percentage voltage drop observed when the motor starts.
