Question: "A three-phase transformer bank is to handle 500 kVA and have a 34.5/11-kV voltage ratio. Find the rating of each individual transformer in the bank (high voltage, low voltage, turns ratio, and apparent power) if the transformer bank is connected to open wye—open delta."

My ans:

HV: 19.9KV

LV: 11 KV

a: 1.81

S: 288KVA

FYI, i only have question no solution. Question seems so challenging cuz i have not practice problems regarding the title. So somebody please teach me. Are my answers correct?

Thank you Zach for the attachment, and happy to say that is what i followed.

I believe Open wye must be the same approach like open delta that you have mentioned.

I wonder if some one agree with my above answers so that i can know i am in right track .
