nt transformed to three-phase for transmission to Buffalo. 83. Capacity of Transformers on Two- and Three-Phase Systems.—When transformers are connected on atwo-phase system, as, for example, to feed a two-phasemotor, each transformer has to be of capacity sufficient tocarry half the load. If the… … 14 ELECTRIC TRANSMISSION. 71 install 1 kilowatt of transformer capacity for every horsepowerdelivered by the motor. Thus a 20-horsepower, two-phaseinduction motor would require tA\ro 10-kilowatt transform-ers; a 30-horsepower three-phase motor would require three10-kilowatt transformers; and so on.…
