Length using Line Losses (3 Phase 4 Wire US) Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Length of Underground AC Wire = Line Losses*Area of Underground AC Wire/(2*(Current Underground AC^2)*Resistivity)
L = P_loss*A/(2*(I^2)*ρ)
This formula uses 5 Variables

Variables Used

Length of Underground AC Wire - (Measured in Meter) - Length of Underground AC Wire is the total length of the wire from one end to other end.
Line Losses - (Measured in Watt) - Line Losses is defined as the total losses occurring in an Underground AC line when in use.
Area of Underground AC Wire - (Measured in Square Meter) - Area of Underground AC Wire is defined as the cross-sectional area of the wire of an AC supply system.
Current Underground AC - (Measured in Ampere) - Current Underground AC is defined as the current flowing through the overhead ac supply wire.
Resistivity - (Measured in Ohm Meter) - Resistivity is the measure of how strongly a material opposes the flow of current through them.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Line Losses: 2.67 Watt --> 2.67 Watt No Conversion Required
Area of Underground AC Wire: 1.28 Square Meter --> 1.28 Square Meter No Conversion Required
Current Underground AC: 9 Ampere --> 9 Ampere No Conversion Required
Resistivity: 1.7E-05 Ohm Meter --> 1.7E-05 Ohm Meter No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

L = P_loss*A/(2*(I^2)*ρ) --> 2.67*1.28/(2*(9^2)*1.7E-05)

Evaluating ... ...

L = 1240.95860566449

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

1240.95860566449 Meter --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

1240.95860566449 ≈ 1240.959 Meter <-- Length of Underground AC Wire

Does resistivity change with length?

Resistivity is an intrinsic property of any material. It stays the same, no matter how long or thick your conductor is. Temperature coefficient*original resistivity*change in temperature. So there is no change with length in resistivity but resistance changes in direct proportion with length of the conductor.
