Summary of Base Values

Utility Source Per Unit calculation

The transformer high voltage side is connected to the 13.8 kV
system. As per IEC 60076-5:2010, the short circuit apparent power
(MVA) is 500 MVA (European practice) shown in Table 1.
A typical value of X/R = 12 from ANSI Standard C37.010.

 The transformer size is 2000 kVA. As per ANSI C-37.010.
From Table 3, the minimum short-circuit impedance percentage for
the above transformer size is 5.75 % and the X/R ratio as per Cast
Coil Type is 7, refer to Table 2.

Length : 6 m @ 1 conductor per phase

R = 0.3420 Ω/km
RT = (0.3420 Ω/km)(0.006km) / 1 = 0.002052 Ω
Rpu = RT / Zb = 0.002052 Ω / 1.9044 Ω = 0.00108 pu
X = 0.13 Ω/km
XT = (0.13 Ω/km)(0.006km) / 1 = 0.00078 Ω
Xpu = XT / Zb = 0.00078 Ω / 1.9044 Ω = 0.00041 pu

Motors First Cycle (Momentary) Calculation

Apply the recommended multiplying factors per IEEE Std.
141-1993, Tables 3.37, for every system component especially for
the group of induction motors rated less than 50hp and more than
50hp but not above 250hp.
