Question: Q 1 . A small house with a power demand of 1 0 0 kVA and an average power factor of 0 . 8 lagging

Q1. A small house with a power demand of 100 kVA and an average power factor of 0.8 lagging is fed from a \(50\mathrm{~Hz},220\mathrm{~V}\) single-phase source via a 150 m -long two-core cable chosen from Table A6(2) attached in clipped direct. Estimate:
a) The rating current and the equivalent impedance of the house.
b) The minimum cable size needed and the equivalent impedance of the cable;
c) The actual current on the cable (to the machine) when the cable in b) is used;
d) The voltage drops alone the cable and the voltage to the machine.
e) The accrual power consumption in the house.
Draw a circuit and a phasor diagram for the system with the source voltage as reference. State clearly any assumptions made.
