In a hydroelectric installation, a turbine delivers 760 hp to a generator, which in turn
converts 54.4% of the mechanical energy into
electrical energy.
Under these conditions, what current will
the generator deliver at a terminal potential
difference of 2260 V?
Answer in units of A

-
760 hp x .746kw/hp = 566.9 kw
assuming single phase generator
Amps = kw(mechanical) x conversion efficiency /( 2260 volts x 1000)

Amps = kw(mechanical) x conversion efficiency /( 2260 volts x 1000)
