Inconjunction withtheaboveconditions, threeloadingcaseswereanalyzedtodetermine thevoltageattheterminals oftheClasslEequipment.
InCase1,thenormalrunningloadsweretransferred tothestartuptransformer following aunittripfromfullloadcoincident withaminimumexpectedgridvoltage.Theloadingconditions ofCase2arethesameasCase1,butwiththeadditionofloadsassociated withanaccident.
FinallyinCase3,theloadingconditions werethesameasCase1exceptthegridwasatthemaximumexpectedvalue.Inadditiontotheaboveconditions, thefollowing assumptions werealsomade:(1)Normalloadsusedweremeasuredvalueswiththep~antatfullload.(2)Powerfactorofrunningloadswasassumedas0.85.(3)HeasurednormalrunningloadsincludedseveralClasslEloads.(4)Startingpowerfactorforthe4KVmotorswasassumedas0.22.Startingcurrentwastakenfromnameplate data.(5)Startingpowerfactorforthe480-voltmotoroperatedvalveswasassumedtobe0.60.Thestartingcurrentwastakenfromplantstartuptestdata.(6)Allcurrentswereassumedtoremainconstant.
