Current in Each Outer (2-Phase 3-Wire US) Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Current Underground AC = Power Transmitted/(Maximum Voltage Underground AC*cos(Phase Difference))
I = P/(V_m*cos(Φ))
This formula uses 1 Functions, 4 Variables

Functions Used

cos - Cosine of an angle is the ratio of the side adjacent to the angle to the hypotenuse of the triangle., cos(Angle)

Variables Used

Current Underground AC - (Measured in Ampere) - Current Underground AC is defined as the current flowing through the overhead ac supply wire.
Power Transmitted - (Measured in Watt) - Power Transmitted is the amount of power that is transferred from its place of generation to a location where it is applied to perform useful work.
Maximum Voltage Underground AC - (Measured in Volt) - Maximum Voltage Underground AC is defined as the peak amplitude of the AC voltage supplied to the line or wire.
Phase Difference - (Measured in Radian) - Phase Difference is defined as the difference between the phasor of apparent and real power (in degrees) or between voltage and current in an ac circuit.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Power Transmitted: 300 Watt --> 300 Watt No Conversion Required
Maximum Voltage Underground AC: 230 Volt --> 230 Volt No Conversion Required
Phase Difference: 30 Degree --> 0.5235987755982 Radian (Check conversion here)

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

I = P/(V_m*cos(Φ)) --> 300/(230*cos(0.5235987755982))

Evaluating ... ...

I = 1.50613113701641

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

1.50613113701641 Ampere --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

1.50613113701641 ≈ 1.506131 Ampere <-- Current Underground AC
