Electrical Engineering Tutorial 4

This document contains a tutorial sheet for an electrical engineering module with 7 practice problems involving 3-phase circuits. The problems cover star and delta connections of resistive and inductive loads and calculations of voltage, current, power, and reactive power. Solutions are provided for determining values such as phase voltage, current, line current, power dissipated, and required line voltage to maintain the same line current for different load connections.
