Transformers in Power Systems
• Typically in power systems, voltages get transformed approximately five times between generation and delivery to the users.
• Generation in power systems, primarily by synchronous generators, takes place at around 20-kV level.
• Transmission voltages of 230 kV, 345 kV, 500 kV, and 765 kV is common.
• At the load, these voltages are stepped down to 120/240 V single-phase in residential usage.
• Another advantage of transformers in many applications is to provide electrical insulation for safety purposes.

Nameplate Information
• kVA is the apparent power.
• Voltage ratings for high and low side are no-load values. The symbol between the values indicate how the voltages are related:
• Long dash (—) From different windings.
• Slant (/) …from same winding: • 240/120 is a 240 V winding with a center tap.
• Cross (X) Connect windings in series or parallel. Not used in wye-connected winding:
• 240X120 two part winding connected in series for 240 or parallel for 120.
• Wye (Y) A wye-connect winding.
Basic Principles of Transformer Operation
• Transformers consist of two or more coupled windings where almost all of the flux produced by one winding links the other winding.
Transformer Exciting Current
• Transformers use ferromagnetic materials that guide magnetic flux due to their high permeability, require small ampere-turns to produce the desired flux density.
• The magnetising current is that current which flows in the primary winding when the primary voltage is applied with the secondary unloaded. It is the necessary current that satisfies the excitation condition as determined by the fundamental transformer equation.
• In modern power transformer of large kVA ratings, the magnetizing currents in their normal operating region are very small, for example, well below 0.2% of the rated current at the rated voltage.
Voltage Transformation
• The EMF of a transformer at a given flux density increases with frequency. By operating at higher frequencies, transformers can be physically more compact because a given core is able to transfer more power without reaching saturation and fewer turns are needed to achieve the same impedance. However, core loss and conductor skin effect also increase with frequency.
• Aircraft and military equipment employ 400 Hz power supplies which reduce core and winding weight. Conversely, frequencies used for some railway electrification systems were much lower (16.7 Hz and 25 Hz) than normal utility frequencies (50/60 Hz) for historical reasons concerned mainly with the limitations of early electric traction systems.
• As such, the transformers used to step down the high over-head line voltages (15 kV) were much heavier for the same power rating than those designed only for the higher frequencies.

The Per unit system
• In the per-unit system, the voltages, currents, powers,
impedances, and other electrical quantities are
expressed on a per-unit basis by the equation:
• It is customary to select two base quantities to define a
given per-unit system. The ones usually selected are
voltage and power.

Load Tap Changing Transformers
• LTC transformers have tap ratios that can be varied to regulate bus voltages.
• The typical range of variation is 10% from the nominal values, usually in 33 discrete steps (0.0625% per step).
• Because tap changing is a mechanical process, LTC transformers usually have a 30 second dead-band to avoid repeated changes to minimize wear and tear.
• Unbalanced tap positions can cause “circulating VARs;” that is, reactive power flowing from one winding to the next in a three phase transformer.
49
Phase Shifting Transformers
• Phase shifting transformers are used to control the phase angle across the transformer.
• Since power flow through the transformer depends upon phase angle, this allows the transformer to regulate the power flow through the transformer.
• Phase shifters can be used to prevent inadvertent "loop flow" and to prevent line overloads.

Autotransformers
• Autotransformers are transformers in which the primary and secondary windings are coupled magnetically and electrically.
• This results in lower cost, and smaller size and weight.
• The key disadvantage is loss of electrical isolation between the voltage levels. This can be an important safety consideration when a is large. For example in stepping down 7160/240 V we do not ever want 7160 on the low side!
