    Question

    Three loads are connected in parallel cross a 1–phase, 1200 V, 50 Hz supply.
    Load 1: Capacitive load, 10 kW and 40 KVAR
    Load 2: Inductive load, 35 kW and 120 KVAR
    Load 3: Resistive load of 15 kW
    What is the total complex power of the circuit?

    A.

    (10+j80) kVA

    B.

    (60+j160) kVA

    C.

    (10–j160) kVA

    D.

    (60+j80) kVA

    Correct option is D


    Given:
    P = (10+35+15) kW
    P = 60 kW
    Q = (120–40) KVAR = 80 KVAR
