Capacitive lead or lag

A

Lead

23
Q

Voltage drop across a resistor in a delta is?

A

Root 3 times bigger than the voltage in a wye

24
Q

Wye or delta have higher current?

A

Delta will draw more current

25
Q

Heater and motor are connected in parallel if the power is decreased then the total current will?

A

Decrease

26
Q

Heater connected in parallel with a motor. If heater power is increased, then the overall PF will?

A

Decrease

27
Q

Series RLC the voltage and the capacitive reactance relationship with lead lag?

A

Current lead voltage by 90° so lags the current by 90°

28
Q

In a balanced 3 phase four wire system the line current is?

A

The same as phase current

29
Q

If a neutral breaks on a unbalanced 3 phase system? What happens to the phase voltage on the loads?

A

The phase voltage increases above normal on the least loaded phase
