IMPORTANT

Electrical energy is supplied by a high-voltage power line that has a total resistance of 4.0 Ω. At the input to the line, the root-mean-square (r.m.s.) voltage has a value of 400 kV and the input power is 500 MW. Calculate the minimum voltage that the insulators that support the line must withstand without breakdown.
