Reactance diagram: 50 MVA, 13.8 kV base, three generators
Short answer
On 50 MVA base, Vb=13.8 kV (G1), 220 kV (line, Zb=968 Ω), 18 kV (G2), 22 kV (G3). Per-unit reactances: G1 j0.5, G2 j0.3333, G3 j0.2755, T1 j0.2, T2 j0.1667, T3 j0.1429, line L1 (j80 Ω) j0.0826, L2 (j100 Ω) j0.1033.
Draw the reactance diagram using a base of 50 MVA and 13.8 kV on generator G1 of a given single line diagram of a power system. The ratings of the generators and transformers are given below: G1: 20 MVA, 13.8 kV, X" = 20%; G2: 30 MVA, 18 kV, X" = 20%; G3: 30 MVA, 20 kV, X" = 20%; T1: 25 MVA, 220/13.8 kV, X = 10%; T2: 3 single phase units each rated 10 MVA, 127/18 kV, X = 10%; T3: 35 MVA, 220/22 kV, X = 10%. [Figure: G1 (Y, grounded) → T1 (Δ on generator side, Y grounded on HV side) → line Section 1, j80 Ω [?] → central bus; from the central bus T2 (Y on HV side, Δ on LV side) → G2; and line Section 2, j100 Ω → T3 (Y grounded on HV side, Δ on LV side) → G3.]
All reactances are converted to a common base of 50 MVA; base voltages follow the transformer line-to-line ratios starting from 13.8 kV at G1.
Base values
- G1 zone: kV
- Line zone (T1 13.8/220 kV): kV,
- G2 zone: T2 is a Y–Δ bank of 127/18 kV units, line-to-line ratio kV, so kV
- G3 zone (T3 220/22 kV): kV
