(a) Use OrCAD to find the Norton equivalent at terminals A and B in Figure P3–55. Hint: Find the open-circuit voltage and short-circuit current at the requisite terminals.

(b) Use the Norton equivalent circuit found in

(a) to determine the power dissipated in RL when it is equal to 37 kV.

(c) Use OrCADto simulate both the original and the Norton equivalent circuits with RL ¼ 37 kV. Verify that the power dissipated by the load is the same in both situations.
