In the power systems analysis field of electrical engineering , a per-unit system is the expression of system quantities as fractions of a defined base unit quantity. Calculations are simplified because quantities expressed as per-unit do not change when they are referred from one side of a transformer to the other. This can be a pronounced advantage in power system analysis where large numbers of transformers may be encountered. Moreover, similar types of apparatus will have the impedances lying within a narrow numerical range when expressed as a per-unit fraction of the equipment rating, even if the unit size varies widely. Conversion of per-unit quantities to volts, ohms, or amperes requires a knowledge of the base that the per-unit quantities were referenced to. The per-unit system is used in power flow , short circuit evaluation, motor starting studies etc.

Once every S is set on the same base, the base voltage and base impedance for every transformer can easily be obtained. Then, the real numbers of impedances and voltages can be substituted into the per-unit calculation definition to get

493-446: The answers for the per-unit system. If the per-unit values are known, the real values can be obtained by multiplying by the base values. By convention, the following two rules are adopted for base quantities: With these two rules, a per-unit impedance remains unchanged when referred from one side of a transformer to the other. This allows the ideal transformer to be eliminated from a transformer model. The relationship between units in

551-461: The base power and the base voltage are chosen, the base current and the base impedance are determined by the natural laws of electrical circuits. The base value should only be a magnitude, while the per-unit value is a phasor. The phase angles of complex power, voltage, current, impedance, etc., are not affected by the conversion to per unit values. The purpose of using a per-unit system is to simplify conversion between different transformers. Hence, it

Different types of quantities are labeled with the same symbol ( pu ); it should be clear whether the quantity is a voltage, current, or other unit of measurement. There are several reasons for using a per-unit system: The per-unit system was developed to make manual analysis of power systems easier. Although power-system analysis is now done by computer, results are often expressed as per-unit values on
667-401: The per unit impedance is 5.76∠0° Ω / 5.76 Ω = 1∠0° pu, which is the same as when calculated from the other side of the transformer, as would be expected. Another useful tool for analyzing transformers is to have the base change formula that allows the engineer to go from a base impedance with one set of a base voltage and base power to another base impedance for a different set of
696-581: The per unit impedance on the secondary side is 1∠0° Ω / 1 Ω = 1∠0° pu When this impedance is referred to the other side, the impedance becomes: Z 2 = ( 240 100 ) 2 × 1∠0° Ω = 5.76∠0° Ω {\displaystyle {\begin{aligned}Z_{2}&=\left({\frac {240}{100}}\right)^{2}\times {\text{1∠0° }}\Omega \\&={\text{5.76∠0° }}\Omega \\\end{aligned}}} The base impedance for

754-400: The resistance in per-unit form as it also represents the full-load copper loss. As stated above, there are two degrees of freedom within the per unit system that allow the engineer to specify any per unit system. The degrees of freedom are the choice of the base voltage ( V base ) and the base power ( S base ). By convention, a single base power ( S base ) is chosen for both sides of
783-843: The same way as single-phase systems. However, due to differences in what these terms usually represent in three-phase systems, the relationships for the derived units are different. Specifically, power is given as total (not per-phase) power, and voltage is line-to-line voltage. In three-phase systems the equations P = S cos ( ϕ ) {\displaystyle P=S\cos(\phi )} and Q = S sin ( ϕ ) {\displaystyle Q=S\sin(\phi )} also hold.

By choosing the base quantities in this manner, the transformer can be effectively removed from the circuit as described above. For example: Take
