A cluster of loads is served by a balanced three-phase source with a line voltage of 4160 V rms. Load 1 is 240 kVA at 0.8 pf lagging and load 2 is 160 kVA at 0.92 pf lagging. A third load is unknown except that it has a power factor of unity. If the line current is measured and found to be 62 A rms, find the complex power of the unknown load.
