I a = I AB − I CA = I AB 3∠ − 30°
I b = I BC − I AB = I BC 3∠ − 30°
I c = I CA − I BC = I CA 3∠ − 30°
Solution
a) Figure (*) shows the single-phase equivalent circuit. The load
impedance of the Y equivalent is
(118.5 + j85.8)/3 = 39.5 + j 28.6 Ω/Ø.
b) The a-phase line current is

=1.39 ∠ − 6.87° A.
Once we know IAB, we also know the other load phase currents:
IBC = 1.39∠-126.87° A.
ICA = 1.39∠113.13° A.
