Module 4: Examples for Admittance, Conductance and Susceptance

Example 1:

Solution:
Inductive Reactance, (XL):

Capacitive Reactance, (XC):

Impedance, (Z)

Conductance, (G):

Inductive Susceptance, (BL):

Capacitive Susceptance, (BC):

Admittance, (Y):

Or

𝑌 = √𝐺 2 + (𝐵𝐿 − 𝐵𝐶 )2 = √(0.02)2 + (0.08 − 0.003)2 = 𝟎. 𝟎𝟖 𝑺

Phase Angle, (φ) between the resultant current and the supply voltage:

Current and Admittance Triangles

Example 2:
Solution:

By complex phasor,

Admittance per impedance,

YR = 1/ZR = 1/250 Ω ∠0° = 4 mS ∠0°
YL = 1/ZL = 1/245.04 Ω ∠90° = 4.08 mS ∠–90°
YC = 1/ZC = 1/1.7684 kΩ ∠–90° = 0.57 mS ∠90°
Total Admittance,

(4𝑚𝑆∠0°)(4.08𝑚𝑆∠ − 90°)(0.57𝑚𝑆∠90°)
=
(4𝑚𝑆∠0°)(4.08𝑚𝑆∠ − 90°) + (4𝑚𝑆∠0°)(0.57𝑚𝑆∠90°) + (4.08𝑚𝑆∠ − 90°)(0.57𝑚𝑆∠90°)

Or
ZT = ZR + ZL + ZC = 250 Ω ∠0° + 245.04 Ω ∠90° + 1.7684 kΩ ∠–90°
