Question
A short transmission line connects a step-up transformer on the source side with a series impedance of j0.5 ohms
(referred to the primary) to a step-down transformer on the load side with a series impedance of 50 ohms (referred to the
primary). The turn ratio of the step-up transformer is 1:14 and a no-load primary voltage of 17 (line-to-line) kV. The step-
down transformer has a turn ratio of 18:1 and it has a Y-connected, balanced load of 0.463 +j 0.0772 ohms connected
to its secondary side.
A capacitor bank of -j0.324 ohms is added parallel to the load. Assuming an ideal transmission line, the effective
impedance (per phase) of the system seen by the source would be:
O A. 0.292 + j0.375
O B. None of the other choices are correct
O C. 0.584 + j0.750
O D.0.196 + j0.158
O E. 5.84 + j7.5
