What are the different power system losses and how can it
be eliminated?

Answer Posted / Vandna

Power System Losses:
1. Resistance Loss: Occurs due to resistance in conductors.
2. Reactance Loss (Capacitive and Inductive): Results from capacitance and inductance in the circuit.
3. Transformer Losses (Copper loss and Iron loss).nTo minimize these losses, one can consider the following measures:
1. Use of low-resistance conductors.
2. Proper insulation of cables to reduce heat generation.
3. Applying proper loading to transformers.
4. Using efficient designs for power transmission lines.

A voltage source of Vt = 10Vrms is connected in parallel to R and L. Determine the total current, It delivered by the voltage source Vt. 8-A series RC circuit has R = 1Mohm and C = 1microF. How long would it take for the capacitor to fully discharge if it is initially fully charged? 9-A circuit has real power = 300W and an apparent power of 500VA. Determine the power factor and phase angle. 10-The time constant for an LR series circuit is T = 0.1s and R = 10ohms. Calculate the inductance L.
