With those assumptions, the minimum acceptable transformer primary voltage is 120 V. Is that good enough? What
is needed is a method to model and analyze the center-tapped
transformer and the secondary system once the primary voltage
on the transformer has been determined from a feeder powerflow study. This paper will develop a method to accurately
model the center-tapped transformer and the three-wire secondary system.
I. I NTRODUCTION
The model of a single-phase center-tapped transformer connected from line to ground serving two 120-V loads and one
240 V load through a triplex cable is shown in Fig. 1.
Typically, the total impedance of the transformer (RT +
jXT ) is known. This is usually expressed in per unit on the
rating of the transformer as the basis. Fig. 1 shows that the
known transformer impedance needs to be broken into three
parts. For interlaced design, the three impedances are given
by [3]
Z0 = 0.5 RT + j0.8 XT
Z1 = RT + j0.4 XT
per unit
(1)
Z2 = RT + j0.4 XT .
In (1), the impedances must be converted to ohms relative to
the respective sides of the transformer.

Once the secondary phase impedance matrix has been computed, two KVL loop equations can be written to compute the
voltage drop down the secondary. Referring to Fig. 1, the two
equations are
V L1 = V1 v1 = V1 (Zs11 I1 + Zs12 I2 )
V L2 = V2 + v2 = V2 + (Zs21 I1 + Zs22 I2 ).

The triplex cable consists of two insulated conductors and
one bare conductor, as shown in Fig. 2.
The triplex cable can be modeled with 2 2 matrices [4].
With reference to Fig. 1, the forward-sweep matrix equation for
the triplex cable is

At the IEEE PES 2008 Transmission and Distribution Conference, as part of a panel session, a paper [1] was presented
that modeled the IEEE 34-node test feeder1 using automatic
meter reading (AMR) data for the loads on the transformers.
The data used were for the 314 customers connected to 23
different single-phase transformers. Data for a three-month
period in 2006 were used. Because the sample data did not
come from transformers connected to an actual feeder, the data
were used for modeling the loads in the 34-node test feeder. The
maximum diversified demand using the AMR readings of the
314 customers was 1198 kW that occurred in the 15-min period
between 5:45 and 6:00 P.M. on July 17, 2006. The 15-min
kilowatt demands for the 23 transformers during the peak
period are shown in Fig. 4.
The 100-kV A transformer (T-4) connected at node 818
serving 28 customers was of interest. The 15-min kilowatt
demand used as the load in the base-case power-flow study was
63.15 kW. In this paper, the voltage at the primary terminals of
the transformer was 121.7 V on a 120-V base. Using the rule
of thumb defined earlier, this voltage should provide every
customer with a voltage within the ANSI standard of 114 V
at the meter. For this case, was every customers voltage at least
114 V? In order to answer that question, a typical secondary for
that transformer is modeled, as shown in Fig. 5.

The total ABC phase impedance matrix from the substation
to the center-tapped transformer is the sum of the four matrices
(29)(32) shown as (33), shown at the bottom of the page.
Since the center-tapped transformer is connected from
phase A to ground, only the 1,1 term of ZTABC is used. With
reference to Figs. 5 and 6, the short-circuit currents are shown
in Table IV.
Note in Table IV the extremely high current when a line-toground short circuit occurs on the secondary of the transformer.
Note also that the short-circuit currents for faults at the customers meter were also calculated.
IX. C ONCLUSION
A model for a single-phase center-tapped transformer has
been developed along with the model for a three-wire triplex
cable. The model for the transformer for power-flow studies
was in the form of matrices, as was the model for the triplex
cable. Data from a paper presented at the 2008 IEEE Transmission and Distribution Conference1 were used to determine
the input voltage to a center-tapped transformer. This voltage
was then used as the input voltage for a power-flow study of a
28-customer secondary. The results of this paper showed that
several customers would not be receiving a voltage within the
ANSI standard. The major purpose for modeling the transformer and the secondary system was to demonstrate that it
is possible to accurately determine the voltage at a customers
meter.
The matrix model of the transformer does not work for
short-circuit studies. Instead, a circuit analysis method was
developed to compute the short-circuit currents everywhere on
the secondary system.
The models developed in this paper can and should be used
by distribution engineers to accurately determine the operating
conditions of a secondary system for power-flow and shortcircuit studies.
