I am new at this and still learning so I thought I would ask for the commmunities help here. Field data was given to me for a 14.4kV-480/277V, 1000kVA, Balteau Standards transformer using tap D (12.47kV). It has always been my understanding that the standard taps are +/- 2.5% and +/-5%. I figure 12.47kV/14.4kV = -15% tap?
I researched the transformer and found that they are no longer in business. It throws me that the tap setting is D, I would think it would be E (an extreme) instead.
Any thoughts on this are greatly appreciated and I will keep looking at it myself. Man, you never quite learning in this field (smile - yeah!)
Thanks again for feedback.
