(Figure 1): Both transformers have ratio of 2KV/11KV. The resistance on LV side of

Figure 1:

both transformers is 0.04 ohm and that on HV side is 1.3 ohm. Reactance on LV and
HV side of both transformers is 0.125 ohm and 4.5 ohm respectively. [Ans: Efficiency
= 96.3%, Vs = 2168 Volts]

2. A load of three impedances each (6+j9) is supplied through a line having an impedance
of (1+j2) ohm. The line-to-line voltage is 400 volts 50 Hz. Determine the power input
