Question
A3-phase, 50 Hz generator supplies power of 3 MW at 17.32 kV to a balanced 3-phase
inductive load through an overhead line. The per phase line resistance and reactance are
0.25 O and 3.925 Q respectively. If the voltage at the generator terminal is 17.87 kV, the
power factor of the load is
