You cannot use 400V as you would never get this to ground. Only short a short circuit between phases.

^ Just ohms law isn't it

Oh hum

 

[MDJ]

0.287 ohms

 

[Guest 004]

^ Interesting how did you get to that?

I am going with 230/1600 = 0.14 ohms

 

[Guest 004]

If the PFC given was calculated with root 3. Then 1600 would have to be divided by root 3 giving 923.8. Then it's 230/923.8 = 0.248

Don't remember the exam being that complicated really. So I am staying with 230/1600

Final Answer

You can shoot me down in flames now.

0.287 ohms

This is the answer I came up with (back in the day) - unfortunately not correct

The lecturer who showed my group the question said it was likely it was designed to mislead (or a 'trick question')
