The two wattmeters read 111 kw and 58 kw respectively


A 480-V, 60-Hz, three-phase power system, two- wattmeter method is used for power measurement. The two wattmeters read 111 KW and 58 kW, respectively. Calculate the approximate power output in HP, losses and the corresponding power factor of the induction motor. There is an ammeter connected in the line "b". Predict the ammeter reading. Calculate the reactive power and the apparent power input to the motor. Draw the power triangle. You want to imrove the power factor to the motor load to unity. Calculate the reactive power compensation required. Draw the circuit diagram of the experiment showing all the relevant meters. name the various losses in the induction motor.
