Q1. A 460-V:2400-V transformer has a series leakage reactance of 37.2 Ω as referred to the
high-voltage side. A load connected to the low-voltage side is observed to be absorbing 25
kW, unity power factor, and the voltage is measured to be 450 V. Calculate the corresponding
voltage and power factor as measured at the high-voltage terminals.

Q2. The resistances and leakage reactance of a 30-kVA, 60-Hz, 2400-V:240-V distribution
transformer are
Rp = 0.68 Ω
Rs = 0.0068 Ω
Xp = 7.8 Ω
Xs = 0.0780 Ω
Each quantity is referred to its own side of the transformer.
a. Draw the equivalent circuit referred to (i) the high- and (ii) the low-voltage sides.
Label the impedances numerically.
b. Consider the transformer to deliver its rated kVA to a load on the low-voltage side
with 230 V across the load. (i) Find the high-side terminal voltage for a load power
factor of 0.85 lagging. (ii) Find the high-side terminal voltage for a load power factor
of 0.85 leading.

Q3. A single-phase load is supplied through a 35-kV feeder whose impedance is 95 + j360 Ω
and a 35-kV:2400-V transformer whose equivalent impedance is (0.23 + j1.27) Ω referred to
its low-voltage side. The load is 160 kW at 0.89 leading power factor and 2340 V.
a. Compute the voltage at
the high-voltage
terminals of the
transformer.
b. Compute the voltage at
the sending end of the
feeder.
