A 10 MVA three phase load is to be served by a three phase transformer at a line voltage of 13.8 kV. The supply side voltage(line-line) is 138 kV. Various single phase transformers are available in the warehouse but all have windings with voltage ratings under 100 kV and current ratings under 250 A. Is it possible to serve the load using only three single phase transformers? If so, specify the three phase connections and the low and high voltage ratings of the single phase transformers.

A 10 MVA three phase load is to be served by a three phase transformer at a
line voltage of 13.8 kV. The supply side voltage(line-line) is 138 kV. Various
single phase transformers are available in the warehouse but all have
windings with voltage ratings under 100 kV and current ratings under 250 A.
Is it possible to serve the load using only three single phase transformers? If
so, specify the three phase connections and the low and high voltage ratings
of the single phase transformers.
