Power equals VI. to meet reqd. power if V reduces I has to
increase

Answer / heamkumar
P=VI,
So V = P/I.
When P=100; I = 227A; then V=440v.
When P=100; I = 250A; then V=400v.

Answer / muhammad ahmed
According to formula of P=VI.
P is the product of V and I thats why whenever one is
decrease another will increas.

Answer / bowana
Ok well lets just back up a moment. what do you think
would happen if you applied 240v to a 120v motor (motor
wired only for 120v application). what everyone is saying
is the motor will only draw half the amps/maintain the same
wattage. Go ahead and try it. You might get a few seconds
out of the motor before it smokes. If motor windings
resistance stays constant, and you increase
voltage.....current goes up.
e over I/R (ohms law)
variables
volts (e) = 120
resis (r)= 10
NOW SOLVE FOR (I) "CURRENT"
120V DIVIDED BY 10 OHMS = 12 AMPS
240V DIVIDED BY 10 OHMS = 24 AMPS

Answer / eng.osama
because there is a reverse proportional between current and
voltage

current increases when voltage decreases in any system at
the condition that KVA is constant
| Is This Answer Correct ? | 12 Yes | 5 No |
Answer / puneet kumar
In our system, current is flow from source to load..and
source is defined in term of VA rating only.(for more
KVA,MVA..)
Thus VA of source is fixed.
It means V X A = Constant.
or V = Constant / A
or V is inversly proportional to A.
Therefore current increses when voltage decreases in ac
system.

Answer / ashish rai
First of all of you notice that p=vi* cos(phi)
Another thing is that for running ac system 10% of voltage
fluctuation is allowed from electricity board.
Hence V is nearly constant factor.
I*cos(phi) is the variable factor hence with variation in
current power factor of system will change not voltage.
If any body is making wrong it plz clarify it.

Answer / mostafa
P=VI,
So V = P/I.
When P=100; I = 227A; then V=440v.
When P=100; I = 250A; then V=400v.
in the above expamle, if the loads were to calculate (load1
= 440/227, and load2 = 400/250). Therefore, load1 is
different than load2. is this possible with the same
equipment?

My question is whether bellow formula is correct to find bus size for 46kA for 0.5 second & what is RT in bellow formula. formula to calculate the size of busbar to withstand the thermal stresses due to currents with duration of 0.2 sec to 5 sec. Sp = RT( I x I x t) / K Where Sp – is the cross sectional area of bus bar in millimeters. I - is the value of AC fault current. t - is the operating time of disconnecting device in seconds. K – is the factor depending on the material of the conductor, insulation and initial and final temperature. Value of ‘k’ for copper is 143.
