    Transformer Voltage Drop

    Uploaded by

    This document calculates the voltage drop that occurs when starting the last of three motors while the other two motors are already running. It provides formulas and values for the nameplate ratings of each motor, as well as the starting and running power requirements. The calculations show that starting the third motor while the other two motors operate would cause a 9.5% voltage drop, so a 10,000 kVA transformer with 7% impedance is selected to minimize the voltage drop.
