Question
A two-core feeder 138 kilo meter long supplies a
maximum current of 142 A at 400 volts. The
demand is such that the copper loss per annum is
that which would be produced by the full load
current flowing for 4 months. The resistance of
conductor 1 km long and 1mm2 section of
conductor as 0.0371 ohm. The value of area of
cross section is 120 mm2. The cost of energy is 15
baisa per unit. Find the power loss and Annual
cost.
Power Loss =
kW
Annual cost =
Rial
