I was doing some calculations and I ran into a problem I cannot find the solution to which is basically...
It is allowable to have a 5% voltage drop from your service entrance to the device that is being powered...
If that device is a 480-to-208 step down transformer, does the calculation become 5% from the service to the transformer then the 208V side resets?
Is there an inherent drop in the 208V side of the transformer if I have dropped 5% on my 480V feeder circuit?
Thanks for any help that can be offered.
