Numerical - Minimum consumer voltage for given cross-sectional area of distributor
Q. A 2 wire dc street mains AB, 600 m long is fed from both ends at 220 V. Loads of 20 A, 40 A, 50 A and 30 A are tapped at distances 100m, 250m, 400m and 500m from the end A. If the area of cross section of distributor is 1 cm2, what will be the minimum consumer voltage? If ? = 1.7 * 10-6 Ω cm.- Published on 23 Nov 15a. 220 V
