Chapter 19, Problem 2PA

You are working on a residential heat pump. The heat pump is connected to a 240-V, 60-Hz power line. The compressor has a current draw of 34 amperes when operating. The compressor has a power factor of 70%. The backup strip heat is rated at 10 kW. You need to know the amount of total current draw that will occur if the strip heat comes on while the compressor is operating.

Answer all the following questions:
A generator is feeding the load. A second load will then be connected in parallel with the first load. The generator has an idle frequency of 61Hz and an Sp slope of 1MW/Hz. Load2 draws 800kW active power at 0.707 reverse power factor, while load1 draws 1000kW active power at 0.8 reverse power factor. What will be the operating frequency of the system after load 2 is connected? *Please explain the solution step by step
