A $$3$$ - $$\phi $$ load operates with balanced voltages applied to its terminals, and draws balanced currents. The potential coil of a moving coil wattmeter is connected from $$R$$ to $$Y$$ terminals of the load. The current coil of the meter is connected in series with phase $$B.$$ by appropriate derivation, show that the quantity indicated by this wattmeter is proportional to the reactive power drawn by the load

A $$2300$$ $$V,$$ $$3$$-phase synchronous motor driving a pump is provided with a line ammeter and a field rheostat. When the rheostat is adjusted such that the $$ac$$ line current is minimum. The ammeter reads $$8.8$$ $$A.$$ What is the power being delivered to the pump, neglecting losses? How should the rheostat be adjusted so that the motor operates at $$0.8$$ leading power factor? How many $$kVARs$$ is the motor supplying to the system at this new power factor?
