Question: A three-phase (138 mathrm{kV} Delta / 13.8 mathrm{kV} mathrm{Y}) distribution substation transformer rated (40 mathrm{MVA}) OA/50 MVA FA/65MVA FOA has an 9% impedance. (a) Determine
A three-phase \(138 \mathrm{kV} \Delta / 13.8 \mathrm{kV} \mathrm{Y}\) distribution substation transformer rated \(40 \mathrm{MVA}\) OA/50 MVA FA/65MVA FOA has an 9\% impedance.
(a) Determine the rated current on the primary distribution side of the transformer at its OA, FA, and FOA ratings.
(b) Determine the per-unit transformer impedance using a system base of \(100 \mathrm{MVA}\) and \(13.8 \mathrm{kV}\) on the primary distribution side of the transformer.
(c) Calculate the shortcircuit current on the primary distribution side of the transformer for a three-phase bolted fault on the primary distribution side. Assume that the prefault voltage is \(13.8 \mathrm{kV}\).
