Hi, I'm trying to solve this problem ---->>>
A 3-phase feeder supplies a spot load connected to its end. The reactive current of the load is 50 A and its power factor is lagging. A PFC bank is installed next to the load to provide partial compensation. The bank current is 28.0 A. Compute the annual $ benefit from the power loss reduction.
Data given:
Feeder resistance: 2.16 Ohm
Loss factor: 0.40
Energy cost rate: 0.05 $/kWh
I did this in this way ---->>>
According to mine calculation, the answer is $ 649.992, but it's wrong as the answer should be $ 2288.76.
Are there any suggestions?
