The rise of the terminal pressure is therefore2520 — 2200 = 320 volts, which is 14-6 per cent, of the normal pressure. The last case which we shall consider is one which is hardly likely tooccur under normal working conditions, viz. cos (f> = o. 320 Electrical Engineering The whole 2200 volts will be used in neutralising the back of theexternal purely inductive load.
