A wattmeter reads 120 W through a 200/5 current transformer and a 6600/110 potential transformer. The power in the primary circuit is

  • A.2400 kW
  • B.288 kW
  • C.4.8 kW
  • D.7.2 kW

Answer: B

Correct answer: 288 kW

Both ratios multiply the wattmeter reading, since power is the product of current and voltage: \[ 120 \times \frac{200}{5} \times \frac{6600}{110} = 120 \times 40 \times 60 = 288{,}000\ \mathrm{W} = 288\ \mathrm{kW}. \] Applying only one of the two ratios gives 4.8 kW or 7.2 kW, both of which are offered here.
