Transformer Sizing Calculation

This document provides calculations to size a transformer for a 1500kW motor. It determines that a 5MVA transformer with voltages of 11kV and 6.6kV and an impedance of 7.15% would be suitable. The calculations show that this transformer would allow a voltage drop of 18.18% at startup, within the permissible 20% limit. Therefore, the selected 5MVA transformer rating is suitable to run the 1500kW motor at direct online (DOL) mode.
