A circuit breaker interrupts the magnetizing current of a 100 MVA transformer at 220 kV. The magnetizing current of the transformer is 5% of the full load current. Determine the prospective value of voltage across the breaker when the magnetizing current is interrupted at 53% of its peak value. The stray capacitance is 2500 F and the inductance is 30 H. 7. In a 220 kV system, the reactance and capacitance up to the location of CB is 8 and 0.025 F, respectively. A resistance of 600 is connected across the contacts of the CB.
