May 20, 2020 at 8:05 comment added Andy aka The power per phase is \$\dfrac{V^2}{R}\$ hence 415*415/22 = 7828 watts. Then. because there are three phases, the total power is 3*7828 watts.
May 20, 2020 at 7:04 comment added Can you smell burning Thank you all for your comments. My understanding of mathematics and equations is shameful. I'm trying to understand the equation above. The answer makes sense and tallys with what i was expecting to see, just not sure how we got there. So V2Line is 22ohms squared? then divide by the resistance? Might need to be walked through this if you have the patience?
