A balanced 3-phase source supplies two balanced Yconnected loads. The first load has a lagging pf of 0.8 and its 3-phase real power is 6 kW. The other load has a leading pf or 0.833 and its 3-phase real power is 12 kW. If the magnitude of the current at each line is 8A rms, find the current in the (a) first load and (b) second load

A balanced 3-phase source supplies two balanced Yconnected loads. The first load has a lagging pf of 0.8
and its 3-phase real power is 6 kW. The other load has
a leading pf or 0.833 and its 3-phase real power is 12
kW. If the magnitude of the current at each line is 8A
rms, find the current in the (a) first load and (b)
second load.
