Two machines and a lighting load are connected in parallel


Two machines and a lighting load are connected in parallel to a 220 V, 60 Hz line. The first machine uses 40 kW of power at 0.81 power factor lagging. The second machine uses 27 kVA at 0.93 power factor leading. The lighting load consumes 13 kW. What is the current in the line feeding the three loads? What kVAR value of capacitance connected across the line is necessary to obtain a power factor of 0.98 lagging? With this capacitor installed, what will be the current flowing in the line feeding the four loads?
