transformer are RH= 18.9Ω, XH= 21.6Ω, RL=
2.1Ω, XL= 2.4Ω, RCH= 8.64 kΩ, XMH= 6.84kΩ.
For each of the four configurations,
determine nominal voltages and currents
 For each connection

 S = 3 x 720 = 2160 VA = 2.16 Kva

 Voltage Ratings are based on line voltages

 Current Ratings can be calculated as
