1. A ᴠ or open delta connected transformer bank, composed of two identical units serves a balanced
3 phase load of 16 kVA at 230 volts. Solve for the minimum size in kVA of the transformers needed.
2. Two single phase distribution transformers are banked in ᴠ (open delta). If each transformer is
rated 37.5 kVA, solve for the maximum 3 phase load that the bank can carry without overloading.
,considering that the load has a power factor of 0.85 lagging.
3. Two (2) single phase, distribution transformers, connected in open delta with supply power to a
220 hp, 3 phase induction motor, operating at 0.70 power factor and 0.90 efficiency. Solve for the
minimum size in kVA of each transformer needed to supply the power without being overloaded.
4. An open delta, three phase transformer consisting of two single phase transformers is operating
with a balanced three phase load of 50 kVA, 440 V, at a lagging pf of 0.80/ Determine the operating
pf of each transformer.
