I'm trying to calculate Susceptance and conductance values for a three phase transformer using the field test report.

I have excitation current in % (i believe % based on name plate current rating). Voltage is 100% and no load losses in KW.

I'm trying to convert everything to per unit and then calcualte G and B in per unit.

example if I = 0.048% = 0.00048 pu.

V = 1 pu

P = 50k/90M = 0.00055 pu

theta = inv cos(p/v*i), value of P/v*i is more than 1 so i couldn't calculate theta.

I was going to calculate magenetising and core loss values of current using Icos(theta) and Isin(theta)

G = I-core loss/V

B =I- magnetising/V

Am i doinig something wrong here?
