I have a test coming up next week and I only have a problem with one question. It goes like this:
There are three Identical capacitors which are connected in delta to a 415v, 50Hz three phase supply.
If the line current is 15a, what is the capacitance of each of the capacitors?
Using this information I know the following:
VL = Vph
IL = sqrt(3)Iph
f = 50
IL = 15
I know that I can use the impedance equation to get the capacitance:
XC = 1 / 2 pi fc
but how do I get XC?
