    Electrical distribution network

    I am doing a project for a course and it asks me to draw annotated drawings of the distribution network including generators, transmission systems, distribution system and low voltage loads which in general is all fine. However, I have come across a question that asks me to draw an annotated...

    Answer verification Series RLC, Reactance, Voltages, Current

    I have to agree with you on the use of X and instead Z but when i tried to submit that on a previous paper as quite honestly it made more sense to me i was told not to use them. The lecturers are rigid and very unhelpful. They throw big blocks of paperwork with no explained examples. I was asked...

    Answer verification Series RLC, Reactance, Voltages, Current

    Something else maybe you can enlighten me on. The paper that gives me all the variables shows Xc as -j40 now i was taking that complex number too literal and for long enough when i was calculating VC as in (Vc = Is x Xc) i was at first using the -j40 as a literal value for Xc so -40. I am right...

    Answer verification Series RLC, Reactance, Voltages, Current

    Are you able to tell me what the correct answer for that part is then. So i can visualise my mistake. As the way i see it is the numerator angle is 0° and the denominator angle is -2.86° those subtracted gives me an angle of -2.86° but it just dawns on me as i write this that a set of brackets...

    Engineering Correct application of Circuit Impedance and Circuit Current

    Im trying to complete a worked example and just looking for validation whether what I am doing is correct. I am given the following: Supply: 230V ∠0° R: 100Ω ∠0° χL: j10Ω ∠90° χC: -j40Ω ∠-90° I struggled a bit with the j operator and using the polar/rectangular functions but this is what I've...

    Kirchoffs Voltage Law Understanding

    << Mentor Note -- Thread moved as requested >> I am trying to complete a mock paper for an upcoming assessment. The mock comes with the answers supplied in bold under the question yet I am having trouble understanding how the answers are obtained. I know that the law states that the sum of all...
