Calculate TC Size & Voltage Drop due to starting of Large

Motor
 Calculate Voltage drop in Transformer ,1000KVA,11/0.480KV,impedance 5.75%, due to
starting of  300KW,460V,0.8 Power Factor, Motor code D(kva/hp).Motor Start 2 times
per Hour and The allowable Voltage drop at Transformer Secondary terminal is 10%.

Motor current / Torque:

 Motor Full Load Current= (Kwx1000)/(1.732x Volt (L-L)x P.F)
 Motor Full Load Current=300×1000/1.732x460x0.8= 471 Amp.
 Motor Locked Rotor Current =Multiplier x Motor Full Load Current

 Min Motor Locked Rotor Current (L1)=4.10×471=1930 Amp

 Max Motor Locked Rotor Current(L2) =4.50×471=2118 Amp
 Motor inrush Kva at Starting (Irsm)=Volt x locked Rotor Current x Full Load
Currentx1.732 / 1000
 Motor inrush Kva at Starting (Irsm)=460 x 2118x471x1.732 / 1000=1688 Kva

Transformer:
 Transformer Full Load Current= Kva/(1.732xVolt)
 Transformer Full Load Current=1000/(1.732×480)=1203 Amp.
 Short Circuit Current at TC Secondary (Isc) =Transformer Full Load Current /
Impedance.
 Short Circuit Current at TC Secondary= 1203/5.75= 20919 Amp
 Maximum Kva of TC at rated Short Circuit Current (Q1) = (Volt x Iscx1.732)/1000.
 Maximum Kva of TC at rated Short Circuit Current (Q1)=480x20919x1.732/1000=
17391 Kva.
 Voltage Drop at Transformer secondary due to Motor Inrush (Vd)= (Irsm) / Q1
 Voltage Drop at Transformer secondary due to Motor Inrush (Vd) =1688/17391 =10%
 Voltage Drop at Transformer Secondary is 10% which is within permissible Limit.
 Motor Full Load Current<=65% of Transformer Full Load Current
 471 Amp <=65%x1203 amp = 471 Amp<= 781 Amp
 Here Voltage Drop is within Limit and Motor Full Load Current<=TC Full Load Current.
  Size of Transformer is Adequate.
