You are a journeyman electrician working in an industrial plant. A 480-V, three-phase, 60-Hz power panel has a current draw of 216 A. A three-phase wattmeter indicates a true power of 86 kW. You have been instructed to reduce the current draw on the panel by adding three 400-µF capacitors to the system. The capacitors are to be connected in wye. Each capacitor will be connected to one of the three-phase lines. What should be the current flow on the system after the bank of capacitors is added to the circuit?
