system
A three-phase generator
Van 20010 V
Vbn 200 230 V
Vcn 200 110 V
We notice that Van leads Vcn by 120 and Vcn in
turn leads Vbn by 120.
Hence, we have an acb sequence.

Ans
At the source:
Ss = -(2087 + j834.6) VA
Pa = -2087W
Pr = -834.6VAR
At the load:
SL = (1392 + j1113) VA
Pa = 1392W
21
Pr = 1113VAR
