We are installing some European built equipment in a juice plant and need a 100 kva transformer to step
480 volt three phase down to 380 volt three phase. Transformers of this rating usually have a long lead time.
Would there be anything wrong with using a three phase transformer with a 600 volt primary and a 480 volt
secondary? With 480 on the primary, the secondary should produce 384 volts. Would the lower excitation
current cause any undesirable changes in performance?
