1.Assumption:-

The 3-ø system considered here is a load, which is star connected.

The phase sequence is R→Y→B.

It is a balanced load.

The pf of each phase is logging.

2.Connection:-It is as shown in Fig (a)

3.Proof

Reading of wattmeter W1

W1=VABIRLcos(betweenVAB)&IRL=VLILcos(3θ0ph)

Reading of wattmeter W2

W2=VABIYLcos(betweenVYB&IYL)=VLILcos(3θ0+ph)(w1+w2)=VLIL{cos(3θ0ph)+cos(3θ0+ph)}={2cos(6002)cos(2ph2)}VLIL=VLIL{2cos3θ0cosph}=VLIL{7×32,cosph}=3VLILcos=Total powervconsumede by the 3load and hence the proof
