Question 1. For a Ydl transformer:
(a) draw the connection diagram
(b) show how the connections must be modified to allow parallel operation with a Yd 11 transformer
(c) draw a phasor diagram for the modified connection.
Question 2. In your own words, state the three essential and two highly desirable conditions which must be fulfilled for two 3-phase transformers to operate satisfactorily in parallel.
State briefly what you think may be the possible consequences of not complying with these conditions.
Question 3. (a) Two single-phase transformers have the following impedances referred to the secondary side.
Unit A rated 250 kVA (0.09 + j2.7) SZ
Unit B rated 400 kVA (0.04 + j1.6) S2
Determine the load taken by each machine as a percentage of its rating when they share a common load of 500 kVA at 0.73 p.f. lag.
(b) Transformer A is rated at 300 kVA with an impedance of (0.09+j0.18)Q
Transformer B is rated at 200 kVA with an impedance of (0.09 + j0.23)
If these transformers are connected in parallel to supply a common load, determine the percentage overload on B when A supplies its full load at p.f. 0.45 lag.
Question 4. From the operating chart shown in FIGURE 15 of lesson ESD - 2 - 2, determine the following performance limitations for a generator:
(a) where the power limit and the MVA limit coincide;
(i) the power factor
(ii) the load angle
(iii) the MVAr output
(b) where the power limit and the stability margin coincide;
(i) the p.u. excitation
(ii) the MVA output.
Question 5. A 3-phase synchronous generator rated at 570 MVA is connected to an infinite busbar. Using the data given in the table below, plot the capacity chart of the generator.
