A town situated 20km away from a power plant generating power at 440V , requires 600 Kw of electric power at 200 V . The resistance of two line wires carrying power is 0.4 ohm per km . the towns gets power from line through 3000-220 V step up transformer at a substation in the town
1) find the power losses in the form of heat?
2) how much power must the plant supply assuming there is a negligible power loss due to leakage ?
3) what is the voltage drop on the line ?
ans : 1) 640 KW
2) 1240 kW
3) 3200V
