% Impedance Calculation

a) Lowest Tap

HV Current (Measured value) = ( Applied voltage * Rated HV current)/ Impedance Voltage

Impedance voltage = Rated HV voltage * Impedance

Impedance = ( Applied Voltage * Rated HV current)/( Rated HV voltage* HV measured current)

Impedance = (379.57*477.15) / (145200*9.87)
= 0.1263
% Impedance = 0.1263*100

% Impedance = 12.63

b) Normal Tap

Impedance = ( Applied Voltage * Rated HV current)/( Rated HV voltage* HV measured current)

Impedance = (378.6*524.86) / (132000*12.37)
= 0.1217
