Step 1
The formula for calculating the phase current in a balanced delta-connected load is: I_phase = V_phase / Z_phase where V_phase is the phase voltage and Z_phase is the phase impedance. Given: V_phase = 240 V Z_phase = 6-j8 ohms Substituting the values into the Show more…

A balanced delta-connected source has phase voltage $\mathbf{V}_{a b}=416 / 30^{\circ} \mathrm{V}$ and a positive phase sequence. If this is connected to a balanced delta-connected load, find the line and phase currents. Take the load impedance per phase as $60 / 30^{\circ} \Omega$ and line impedance per phase as $1+j 1 \Omega$
A 3-phase AC system has a delta connected load with each arm having a resistance of 25 ohms. The supply voltage is 400 V. a) What is the current through each of the delta arms? b) Calculate the line current and the total power consumed.
