how can u determine size of the conductor by knowing the
voltage level

Answer Posted / naveen

Yes one could determine the size of the conductor by knowing
the voltage levels and some other factors too.Also the
maximum voltage that can safely be applied to any winding is
determined by the type and thickness of the insulation used.
When a better (and thicker) insulation is used between the
windings, a higher maximum voltage can be applied to the
windings.
To be more specific by equations,
VD= 2*K*I*L/ CSA

WHERE:

VD= VOLTAGE DROP
I= CURRENT
L= DISTANCE OF THE LOAD FROM THE OUTLET (IN FT)
K= 12 FOR COPPER AND 19 ALUMINUM (FOR MAXIMUM TEMP OF 75 DC)
CSA= CONDUCTOR CROSS SECTIONAL AREA IN CIRCULAR MILS.

A 100 kVA , 400 v/250 kv testing transformer has 8% leakage reactance and resistance on 100 KVA base . A cable has to be tested at 500 kv using the above transformer as a resonant transformer at 50 hz . if the charging current of the cable at 500 kv is 0.4 A find the series inductance required . Assume 2% resistance for the inductor to be used and the connecting leads . Neglect dielectric loss of hte cable . what will be the input voltage to the transformer ?
