If two paralleled transformers have unequal per unit impedances, they will

  • A.share the load in inverse proportion to those impedances
  • B.share the load in direct proportion to those impedances
  • C.share the load equally regardless of their impedances
  • D.circulate current between themselves even at no load

Answer: A

Correct answer: share the load in inverse proportion to those impedances

Paralleled transformers see the same terminal voltage, so the one with the lower impedance takes the larger share of current: the split is in inverse proportion to the per unit impedances. Unequal impedances therefore mean one unit reaches its rating before the other, and the pair cannot deliver the sum of their ratings.
