Since the given voltage of $U_{\rm RMS} = 110~\rm V$ is applied between the terminals of each winding, this is also the string voltage $U_\rm S$. \\ For delta configuration, the phase voltage $U_\rm L$ is equal to the string voltage $U_\rm S$. {{drawio>ee2:EzrkJzIFCEgTtCpC_solution2.svg}} * $U_{\rm S} = 110~\rm V$ * $U_{\rm L} = 110~\rm V$ c) Specify the RMS value of the phase current $I_\rm L$ and the string current $I_\rm S$. Since the given current of $I_{\rm RMS} = 5~\rm A$ is running through each winding, this is also the string current $I_\rm S$. \\ For the phase current $I_\rm L$, one has to consider that at each node the sum of all the notes must be zero: $\sum_i I_i =0$. \\ By this (and showing in the example in the image below), One can see, that $I_\rm L= \sqrt{3} \cdot I_{\rm RMS} = \sqrt{3} \cdot 5~\rm A$ {{drawio>ee2:EzrkJzIFCEgTtCpC_solution3.svg}} * $I_{\rm S} = 5~\rm A$ * $I_{\rm L} = 8.66~\rm A$ d) Determine the active power. The active power $P$ is given by: $P = 3 \cdot U \cdot I \cdot \sin(\varphi)$ \begin{align*} P &= 3 \cdot 110{~\rm V} \cdot 5{~\rm A} \cdot \sin(25°) \\ &= 1'610.888... ~\rm W \end{align*} $W = 1.61 ~\rm kW$
