If a 6.1 A resistive load is connected by 2-conductor stranded 2-AWG copper wire to a source voltage of 125.2 V that is 358 ft away (one-way distance), then what is the voltage at the load

124.86 V

Explanation:

We have to first calculate the voltage drop across the copper wire. The copper wire has a length of 358 ft

1 ft = 0.3048 m

358 ft = 109.12 m

The diameter of 2 AWG copper wire (d) = 6.544 mm = 0.006544 m

The area of the wire = πd²/4 = (π × 6.544²)/4 = 33.6 mm²

Resistivity of wire (ρ) = 0.0171 Ω.mm²/m

The resistance of the wire =

The voltage drop across wire = current * resistance = 6.1 A * 0.056 ohm = 0.34 V

The voltage at end = 125.2 - 0.34 = 124.86 V
