Transformer load capacity:

1 MVA = 1000 KVA


Load capacity= KVA x PF

KVA calculation
For three phase KVA= (V*I*1.732)/1000
For single phase KVA= (V*I)/1000
MVA calculation-
For three phase MVA= (V*I*1.732)/100,000
For single phase MVA= (V*I)/1000,000
Voltage
V = I × R = P / I = √(P × R) in volts V
Power
P = V × I = R × I2 = V2 / R in watts W
P = work / time (W ⁄ t).
Current
I = V / R = P / V = √(P / R) in amperes A
Resistance
R = V / I = P / I2 = V2 / P in ohms Ω
Load Factor= Average load/Max demand
= (Average load x 24)/(Max demand x 24)
=units generated in T hours/ Maximum demand in T hours
Average Load
Daily average load= No of units(KWh) generated in a day/24 hours
Monthly average load
= No of units(KWh) generated in a month/number of hours in a month
Yearly average load= No of units(KWh) generated in a year/8760 hours
Demand Factor= Maximum demand/Connected load
Reactive Power Formulas:
Q = V I Sinθ
Reactive Power=√ (Apparent Power2– True power2)
VAR =√ (VA2 – P2)
kVAR = √ (kVA2 – kW2)
complex Power
S= VI*
Apparent Power Formulas:
S=VI
Apparent Power = √ (True power2 + Reactive Power2)
kVA = √kW2 + kVAR2
Real Power formulas:
P=VI (In DC circuits)
P = VI Cosθ (in Single phase AC Circuits)
P = √3 VL IL Cosθ or (in Three Phase AC Circuits)
P = 3 VPh IPh Cosθ
P = √ (S2 – Q2)or
P =√ (VA2 – VAR2) or
Real or True power = √ (Apparent Power2– Reactive Power2) or
kW = √ (kVA2 – kVAR2)
Energy
E = P × t measured in watt-hours, or also in kWh
String efficiency
%age string efficiency
= Voltage across string/(n x voltage across disc nearest to conductor ) x 100
K= ratio of self-capacitance to shunt capacitance
K=shunt capacitance/self-capacitance
Sag in overhead lines:
When supports are at equal levels
Sag= w(L^2)/8T
Where
w= weight per unit length of conductor
L= length of span
T= Tension in conductor
When supports are at unequal levels
Sag1 = w(x1)^2/2T
Sag2 = w(x2)^2/2T6
Safety factor
Safety factor of insulator= Puncture strength/Flash-over voltage
Calculate Electricity Bill
1unit = 1kWh.
So Total kWh = 1000 Watts x 24 Hrs x 30 Days = 720000 watts/hour.
1 unit = 1KWh
Total consumed units= 720000/1000 (kilo=1000)
Total units= 720

Cost of per unit is 12.


So total Cost or Electricity bill= 720 x 12 = 8640.

Per-unit impedance new


Per-unit Znew = per-unit Zgiven (base KVgiven/base KVnew)2 x (base KVAgiven/base KVAnew)

Transformer Turn ratio

Np/Ns = Vp/Vs = Is/Ip = a

EMF = turns x rate of change

Where:

ƒ = is the flux frequency in Hertz, = ω/2π

Ν = is the number of coil windings.

Φ = is the amount of flux in webers


Power in a Transformer
Power(primary) = Power(secondary) = VsIs Cosϴ = VpIp Cosϴ
Efficiency = output/input x 100 %
Percentage regulation
Percentage regulation = (|V2,No load|-|V2,Full load|)/|V2,Full load| X 100
Resistance of transmission line conductors
R= pl/A
p= Resistivity of conductor
l= length
A= cross sectional area
Inductance of a conductor due to internal flux
Lint = 1/2 x 10-7 H/m
Inductance of a conductor due to external flux
L12 = 2 x 10-7 ln D2/D1 H/m
Inductance of a single phase two wire line
L = 4 x 10-7 ln D/r’ H/m

Dsb = ((Ds x d x d)3)1/9
Four strand bundle
Dsb = ((Ds x d x d x d x 1.414d)4)1/16
Capacitance of a two wire line
Cn = (2x pi x k)/ln(D/r) F/m to neutral
Cab = (pi x k)/ln(D/r) F/m (line to line)
