Area of X-Section using Resistance (3-Phase 4-Wire OS) Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Area of Overhead AC Wire = Resistivity*Length of Overhead AC Wire/Resistance Overhead AC
A = ρ*L/R
This formula uses 4 Variables

Variables Used

Area of Overhead AC Wire - (Measured in Square Meter) - Area of Overhead AC Wire is defined as the cross-sectional area of the wire of an AC supply system.
Resistivity - (Measured in Ohm Meter) - Resistivity is the measure of how strongly a material opposes the flow of current through them.
Length of Overhead AC Wire - (Measured in Meter) - Length of Overhead AC Wire is the total length of the wire from one end to other end.
Resistance Overhead AC - (Measured in Ohm) - Resistance Overhead AC is defined as the property of the wire or line that opposes the flow of current through it.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Resistivity: 1.7E-05 Ohm Meter --> 1.7E-05 Ohm Meter No Conversion Required
Length of Overhead AC Wire: 10.63 Meter --> 10.63 Meter No Conversion Required
Resistance Overhead AC: 0.0028 Ohm --> 0.0028 Ohm No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

A = ρ*L/R --> 1.7E-05*10.63/0.0028

Evaluating ... ...

A = 0.0645392857142857

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

0.0645392857142857 Square Meter --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

0.0645392857142857 ≈ 0.064539 Square Meter <-- Area of Overhead AC Wire
