The power input to a three-phase motor is measured by the two wattmeter method. The three line voltages are 220 V and the current in each of the three line wires is 8 A. If the three-phase power factor is 0.866 lag, what are the values of power indicated by wattmeter 1 and wattmeter 2
A single wattmeter is connected to measure reactive power of a three-phase, three-wire balanced load. The line current is 17 A and the line voltage is 440 V. Calculate the power factor of the load if the reading of the wattmeter is 4488 VAR.
A balanced 3-phase a-b-c system with line-to-line voltage Vab = 20800 V supplies to a balanced connected load of 3 kW with a power factor of 0.8 (lag) through ideal conductors. Find the line currents. Draw the phasor diagram.
