The copper line with a total length of 20 meters operates in the 220 volt city network. If three separate receiver groups of 5 amps are operated on this line and a maximum voltage drop of 1.5% is desired, find the standard value of the cable to be used, the amount of voltage drop on the line with this conductor, and the lost power consumed on this line.
