STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Resistivity: 1.7E-05 Ohm Meter --> 1.7E-05 Ohm Meter No Conversion Required
Power Transmitted: 920 Watt --> 920 Watt No Conversion Required
Length of Wire DC: 12.7 Meter --> 12.7 Meter No Conversion Required
Volume of Conductor: 26 Cubic Meter --> 26 Cubic Meter No Conversion Required
Maximum Voltage Overhead DC: 60.26 Volt --> 60.26 Volt No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

P_loss = 4*ρ*((P*L)^2)/(V*(V_m^2)) --> 4*1.7E-05*((920*12.7)^2)/(26*(60.26^2))

Evaluating ... ...

P_loss = 0.0983241966354839

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

0.0983241966354839 Watt --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

0.0983241966354839 ≈ 0.098324 Watt <-- Line Losses
