Line Losses using Load Current (2 Phase 4 Wire US) Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

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

Variables Used

Line Losses - (Measured in Watt) - Line Losses is defined as the total losses occurring in an Underground AC line when in use.
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.
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.
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.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Current Underground AC: 9 Ampere --> 9 Ampere No Conversion Required
Resistivity: 1.7E-05 Ohm Meter --> 1.7E-05 Ohm Meter No Conversion Required
Length of Underground AC Wire: 24 Meter --> 24 Meter No Conversion Required
Area of Underground AC Wire: 1.28 Square Meter --> 1.28 Square Meter No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

P_loss = I^2*2*ρ*L/A --> 9^2*2*1.7E-05*24/1.28

Evaluating ... ...

P_loss = 0.0516375

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

0.0516375 Watt --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

0.0516375 ≈ 0.051638 Watt <-- Line Losses
