Voltage across each phase of h.v. winding
= 360 = 120 V = VSC 3
VPh = 3300 V ;IPh = 300 × 103 = 100 = 30.3 amp. 3 × 3300 3.3 ZeH = VSC = 120 = 3.96 Ω ISC 30.3 Zbase = Vbase = 3300 = 108.9 Ω Ibase 30.3 ∴ ZeH (p.u.) = 3.96 = 0.0364 p.u. 108.9
Correct Option: D

V1 = f1 Bm1 V2 f2 Bm2 ∴ 220 = 60 . Bm1 230 50 Bm2
⇒ Bm2 = 1.255 Bm1∴ Ph2 = Ph1 × f2 Bxm2 f1 Bxm1 = 340 × 50 (1.255)1.6 = 408.0 watts 60 Pe2 = Pe1 × f2 .Bm2 2 f1 .Bm1 = 120 × 50 × 1.255 2 = 131.3 watts 60
Total loss= Ph2 + Pe2 = 408 + 131.3 = 539.3 watt.
Correct Option: B

kVA rating of auto-transformer
= 500 × 50 = 25 kVA
As a two- winding transformer,η = output = 0.95 output + losses ∴ 5 × 0.8 = 0.95 5 × 0.8 + losses
⇒ Losses = 210.52 watt
Since losses remain const ant, hence for an auto-transformer,η = 25 × 0.8 = 98.95% 25 × 0.8 + 0.210
