P=3VLILcosϕ1500=3×440×IL×0.2IL=9.84 A

For Star load,

Iph=ILIph=9.84 A

Z_ph=\dfrac{V_{ph}}{I_{ph}} =\frac{(V_L\sqrt{3})}{I_{ph}} =\dfrac{(440\sqrt{3})}9.84=25.82 \ Ω\\[2ex] cos⁡ϕ=\dfrac{R_{ph}}{Z_{ph}} \\[2ex] R_{ph}=25.82\times0.2=5.164 \ Ω\\[2ex] cos \ ⁡ϕ=0.2

So,

ϕ=cos^{-1}⁡0.2=78.46^{\circ}\\[2ex] X_{ph}=Z_{ph}\times sin⁡\ ϕ=25.82 sin⁡(78.46^{\circ})=25.3 \ Ω\\[2ex] L_{ph}=\dfrac{X_{ph}}{2πf=25.3}(2\times3.14\times50)=80.53mH
