The long distance power transmission lines reaching a certain power substation operate at 375,000 V. This potential difference has to be "stepped down" for local distribution through city power lines at 14,300 V. Substations use very large, oil-cooled transformers (a photograph of one is in the text) to accomplish this conversion. What is the ratio of primary to secondary windings in a transformer in such a substation?

1. In order to meet an emergency, three single-phase transformers with 12.470/7.200 V are connected in Delta-Wye to form a three-phase transformer which is fed by a 12.470 V transmission line. If the transformer supplies 60 MVA to a load, calculate: (3 marks) a. The turns ratio for each transformer b. The currents in the primary and secondary windings of the transformer c. The primary and secondary transmission line currents 2. A Wye-Delta transformer is connected to a 66 kV...
