Example 1: Consider a balanced wye-connected load where each load impedance is power delivered to the load. Solution: The line currents are
o = 1200 = 1.7 45o A Ia 50 + j 50 o = 120 120 = 1.7 165o A Ib 50 + j 50 o = 120120 = 1.775o A Ic 50 + j 50
Z L = 50 + j 50 and the phase voltages are 120 V. Determine the total average

Example 2: If the line voltage of a balanced, wye-connected load is 208 V and the total average power delivered to the load is 900 W, determine each load if their power factors are 0.8 leading. Solution: From equation:
PavTot = 3
then:

= 38.43
Since the power factor is 0.8 leading (current leads voltage; voltage lags current),
Example 3: A balanced -connected load is 208 V, and the total average power delivered to the load is 600 W. Determine the individual loads if they have a lagging power factor of 0.7. Solution: The average power delivered to each load is 200 W, so that

Example 4: Three-phase power is supplied to a balanced, -connected load. The line-to-line voltage is 208 V, and the load consumes a total power of 15 kW at a lagging power factor of 0.6. Determine the transmission-line currents and the individual loads. Solution: From equation:

For delta connection, VP =VL, thus the magnitude of the individual load impedance is:
= 5.19
Since the power factor is 0.6 lagging,
