1. A 208Y/120-volt feeder in a commercial building supplies lighting and receptacle loads as well as several 3-phase electric motors, one of which is rated 10 horsepower. Determine the load in volt-amperes for the 10- horsepower, 208-volt, 3-phase electric motor to be used in the feeder calculation.
