  1. Two single-phase transformer rated 1000 kVA and 500 kVA have per unit leakage impedance of (0.02 + j0.06) and (0.025 + j0.08) respectively. Then, the largest kVA load delivered by the parallel combination of these two transformers without overloading any one is

    Choosing base of 1000 kVA,
    Ze1(1000 kVA) = (0.02 + j 0.06) pu

    Ze2(500 kVA) =
    1000
    . (0.025 + j 0.08) p.u. = 0.05 + 0.16 j
    500

    Now, S1 =
    Ze2
    . S
    Ze1 + Ze2

    ⇒ S = S1 .
    Ze1 + Ze2
    Ze2

    = 1000 .
    0.07 + j0.22
    0.05 + j0.16

    = 1377.44 kVA,
    and S2 =
    Ze1
    . S1
    Ze1 + Ze2

    ∴ S = 500
    0.07 + j0.022
    = 1825.3 kVA
    0.02 + j0.06

    As, Ze1 < Ze2, transformer 1 reaches its rated kVA first,
    ∴ largest kVA load = 1377.44 k VA

    Correct Option: B

    Choosing base of 1000 kVA,
    Ze1(1000 kVA) = (0.02 + j 0.06) pu

    Ze2(500 kVA) =

    Now, S1 =
    Ze2
    . S
    Ze1 + Ze2

    ⇒ S = S1 .
    Ze1 + Ze2
    Ze2

    = 1000 .
    0.07 + j0.22
    0.05 + j0.16

    = 1377.44 kVA,
    and S2 =
    Ze1
    . S1
    Ze1 + Ze2

    ∴ S = 500
    0.07 + j0.022
    = 1825.3 kVA

    As, Ze1 < Ze2, transformer 1 reaches its rated kVA first,
    ∴ largest kVA load = 1377.44 k VA


  1. A 2400/240 V, 200 kVA single-phase transformer has a core loss of 1.8 kW at rated voltage. Its equivalent resistance is 1.1 percent. Then, the transformer efficiency at 0.9 pf and on full-load is

    Pcu-loss
    = re(p.u.)
    kVA rated

    ⇒ Pcu-loss = 0.011 × 200 kVA = 2.2 kW
    ∴ η =
    200 × 0.9
    200 × 0.9 + 2.2 + 1.8

    =
    180
    = 97.2 %

    Correct Option: C

    Pcu-loss
    = re(p.u.)
    kVA rated

    ⇒ Pcu-loss = 0.011 × 200 kVA = 2.2 kW
    ∴ η =
