Question

In a dc two wire feeder the voltage drop per wire is 3%. Transmission efficiency of the feeder is:

A.

94%

B.

98%

C.

92%

D.

96%

Correct option is A

In a DC two-wire feeder: Voltage drop in each wire =3% Since there are two wires, the total voltage drop is:3%+3%=6%Transmission efficiency is given by:Efficiency=Receiving-end voltageSending-end voltage×100=(100%Total voltage drop)=100%6%=94%\text{In a DC two-wire feeder:} \\[8pt]\bullet \ \text{Voltage drop in each wire } = 3\% \\[6pt]\bullet \ \text{Since there are two wires, the total voltage drop is:} \\[8pt]3\% + 3\% = 6\% \\[14pt]\text{Transmission efficiency is given by:} \\[8pt]\text{Efficiency} = \frac{\text{Receiving-end voltage}}{\text{Sending-end voltage}} \times 100 \\[10pt]= (100\% - \text{Total voltage drop}) \\[10pt]= 100\% - 6\% = 94\%​​
