Let a 5-kVA, 400/200-V transformer be approximately represented by a 2  reactance referred to the low-
voltage side. Considering the rated values as base quantities, express the transformer reactance as a per-unit
quantity.

2. A three-phase, wye-connected, 6.25 kVA, 220 V synchronous generator has a reactance of 8.4 ohm per
phase. Using the rated kVA and voltage as base values, determine the per-unit reactance. Then refer this per-
unit value to a 230 V, 7.5 kVA base.

3. A sample of copper wire has a resistance of 50 ohm at 10oc. What must be the maximum operating
temperature of the wire if its resistance is to increase by at most 10 percent? Take the temperature coefficient
at 10oc to be = 0.00409°C-1

4. The per-phase line loss in a 40-km long transmission line is not to exceed 60 kW while it is delivering
100 A per phase. If the resistivity of the conductor material is 1.72 x 10-8. m, determine the required
conductor diameter.

5. A single-phase, two-wire transmission line, 15 km long, is made up of round conductors, each 0.8 cm in
diameter, separated from each other by 40 cm.

inch, at (a) 20oC and (b) 120°C.  = 2.83µ .cm and a = 0.0039°C-1 at 20°C

7. A single-circuit, three-phase, 60-Hz transmission line consists of three conductors arranged as shown in
Figure. If the conductors are the same as that in Problem 6,
a. find the inductive reactance of the line per kilometer per phase.
b. What is the capacitive reactance per kilometer of the three-phase transmission line?

8. Calculate the capacitance per kilometer per phase of the single-circuit, two-bundle conductor line shown
