Hi All,
I am trying to understand if there is a material power loss associated with the inductance & capacitance in a wire that is carrying A/C electricity?
I know I can calculate the losses in the wire due to resistance using P = sq(I)xR but is there a material loss from inductance/capacitance in the wire?
Ultimately I am trying to understand if there will be a (material) difference in losses between between a length of cable carrying say 220V DC or 220V AC?
Thanks in advance for any assistance!
Rob.
