  1. A balanced star-connected and purely resistive load is connected at the secondary of a star-delta transformer as shown in the figure given below. The line-to-line voltage rating of the transformer is 110 V/220V. Neglecting non-idealities of the transformer, impedance ‘Z’ of the equivalent star-connected load, referred to the primary side of the transformer, is
    1. (3 + j0)Ω
    2. (0.866 – j0.5)Ω
    3. (0.866 + j0.5)Ω
    4. (1 + j0)Ω
Correct Option: D


v1 =
110
v2 = 220
3

But i2 =
220
=
220
amp
38√3

Now i1v1 = i'2 v2
∴ i1 .
110
= i²1.220
3

i1
= 2√3
1

i1 2√3 .
220
=
440
= 55 amp
8√38

∴ 110 = 2z * i1
z =
110
= 1
2 × 55

∴ z = 1+ j0.
