1. What is Power Transmitted Using Resistance (1-Phase 2-Wire US)?

Power Transmitted Using Resistance (1-Phase 2-Wire US) refers to the amount of electrical power that is transferred through a single-phase two-wire underground AC system, accounting for line losses and resistance in the transmission line.

2. How Does the Calculator Work?

The calculator uses the formula:

\[ P = \sqrt{\frac{P_{\text{loss}} \cdot (V_m \cdot \cos(\Phi))^2}{4 \cdot R}} \]

Where:

\( P \) — Power Transmitted (Watt)
\( P_{\text{loss}} \) — Line Losses (Watt)
\( V_m \) — Maximum Voltage Underground AC (Volt)
\( \Phi \) — Phase Difference (Radian)
\( R \) — Resistance Underground AC (Ohm)

Explanation: The formula calculates the power transmitted by considering line losses, maximum voltage, phase difference, and resistance in the system.

3. Importance of Power Transmitted Calculation

Details: Accurate calculation of power transmitted is crucial for designing efficient electrical systems, minimizing energy losses, and ensuring proper functioning of electrical networks.

4. Using the Calculator

Tips: Enter line losses in Watt, maximum voltage in Volt, phase difference in Radian, and resistance in Ohm. All values must be valid (positive numbers).
