Q5. A star connected three phase Load has a coil of resistance 50 Ω and inductance 0.1 H in each phase. It is connected to a three-phase, three-wire supply of 415V, 50Hz.

Calculate EACH of the following:

(a) The Line current;

(b) The power factor of the Load;

(c) The value of EACH of three identical delta connected capacitors, which if connected in parallel with this Load, will raise the overall power factor to unity.
