Problem 3: A single phase 60 Hz two-winding power transformer israted at 2400V/240V and 100 kVA with
Zeq = 0.5 + j0.8 Ohm. If an autotransformer is built from thisconventional transformer to supply a load at
2640V with supply voltage 2400V. Draw the autotransformer andcalculate Zeq, the voltage, current and
apparent power rating of the auto transformer. Also calculate theapparent power rating advantage of
autotransformer over conventional transformer.
