Chapter 12, Problem 83CP
A commercially available three-phase inductive motor operates at a full load of 120 hp (1 hp = 746 W) at 95 percent efficiency at a lagging power factor of 0.707. The motor is connected in parallel to a 80-kW balanced three-phase heater at unity power factor. If the magnitude of the line voltage is 480 V rms, calculate the line current.

A single – phase transmission line supplies a reactive load at a lagging power factor. The load draws 1.2 pu current at 0.6 pu voltage while drawing 0.5 pu (true) power. If the base voltage is 20 kV and the base current is 160 A, calculate the power factor and the ohmic value of the resistance of the load.
If a 3- Ø, Y-connected system has a line-to-line voltage of 1103Sin(377t) V, then the line-to-neutral (RMS) voltage would be:
A 50 Hz, 250 V single phase power line has the following loads placed across it in paralell; 4 kW at a pf of 0. 8 lagging; 6 kVA at a pf of 0.6 lagging; 5 kVA which includes 1.2 kVAR leading. Determine
the overall pf of the system and the capacitance of the capacitor which, if connected across the mains restore the power factor to unity.
