P.P.12.1 For the abc sequence, V an leads V bn by 120° and V bn leads V cnby 120°.
Hence, V an = 110 ∠( 30 °+ 120 °)= 110 ∠ 150 ° V
V cn = 110 ∠( 30 °− 120 °) = 110 ∠ –90˚V
(a) V ab = V an− V bn= 120 ∠ 30 °− 120 ∠- 90 °
V ab =( 103. 92 +j 60 )+j 120
V ab = 207.8 ∠ 60 ˚V
Alternatively, using the fact that leads by 30° and has a
magnitude of
V ab V an
3 times that of V an,
V ab= 3 ( 120 )∠( 30 °+ 30 °)= 207. 85 ∠ 60 °
Following the abc sequence,
V bc = 207.8 ∠ –60˚V
V ca = 207.8 ∠ 180 ˚V

I (^) a 3. 75 ∠ - 8.66 ° A
Following the abc sequence,

I (^) c = I a∠ 120 ° = 15. 59 ∠ 30 ° A
P.P.12.4 In a delta load, the phase current leads the line current by 30° and has a
magnitude 3
times that of the line current. Hence,

P.P.12.11 The schematic is shown below. First, use the AC Sweep option of the
Analysis Setup. Choose a Linear sweep type with the following Sweep Parameters :
Total Pts = 1, Start Freq = 100, and End Freq = 100. Once the circuit is saved and
simulated, we obtain an output file whose contents include the following results.
From this we obtain,
I (^) bB = 8. 547 ∠ - 91.27 ° A , V an = 100. 9 ∠ 60.87 ° V
Use the AC Sweep option of the Analysis Setup. Choose a Linear sweep type with the

include the following results.
