Question
- A 150 KVA, 0.4/250 kV testing transformer has 10% leakage reactance and 4%
resistance on 150 kVA base. A cable has to be tested for 500 kV using this transformer
at a resonant frequency of 50 Hz. If the charging current of the cable at 500 kV is 0.4
A. Assuming 1.5% resistance for the inductor to be used and the connecting leads and
neglecting dielectric loss of the cable, calculate:
1.2.1 The series inductance required
1.2.2 The input voltage of the transformer and power (kW).
