A small township with a demand of 880 kW of electric power at 220 V is situated 20 km away from a mini hydropower generating station generating power at 440 V. The resistance of the two wire line carrying power is 0.5 ohm per km. The town gets power from the line through a 11 kV-220 V step down transformer at a substation at the township. (a) The current flowing through the two wire supply line is

Answer»

160 A
80 A
2000 A
8 `A`

SOLUTION :Hint CURRENT flowing through the two wire supply LINE `I = P/V = (880 kW)/(11 kV) = 80 A`
