A room is lighted by `200W,124 V` incandescent lamps fed by a generator whose output voltage is `130 V`. The conducting wires from the generator to the user are made of aluminimum wire of total length 150 m and cross-sectional area `15 mm^(2)`. How many such length can be installed ? What is the total power consumed by the user ? sp. resistance of aluminium is `2.9 xx 10^(-4) Omega m `
