7. A three phase alternator is operating at 450 volts, 250
amps at 0.6 power factor. If the power factor
increases to 0.8, the KW load will increase by .
a. 38.97 KW
b. 155.88 KW
c. 166.91 KW
d. 194.85 KW
Ans. A
8. Solution;
P1 = IV 1.73 pf P2 = IV 1.73 pf
P1 = (250 amp)(450 v)(1.73)(0.6) P2 = (250 amp)(450 v)
(1.73)(0.8)
P1 = 116.775 KW P2 = 155.7 KW
P = P2 – P1
P = 155.7 KW – 116.775 KW
P = 38.925 KW
