Draw the circuit of a 3-phase 4160/2400V generator. Note that the generator is in a WYE configured generator. Ignore any generator impedance. Draw this first before moving on. Connect the generator to the primary of a 3-phase transformer. You will only have 3 lines from the generator to the transformer primary. The transformer is rated at 1000kVA, 4160-208/120V, 60Hz. In this step, there is no load on the transformer, the secondary of the transformer is open-circuited.

Clearly label and determine of the following:
V{generator_{\phi}}
V{generator_{line}}
V{primary_{\phi}}
V{primary_{line}}
V{secondary_{\phi}}
V{secondary_{line}}

Connect a
1k\Omega
resistor across each phase of the secondary of the transformer to neutral. Redraw the circuit.
1. Determine $V_{load}$ across each resistor. Show this voltage in the circuit diagram.
$$
V_\phi=120V=V_{a}\rightarrow V_{neutral}=V_{b}\rightarrow V_{neutral}=V_{c}\rightarrow V_{neutral}\\
\therefore\\
V_{load}=120V
$$
2. Find $I_{load}$ through each resistor.
$$
I_{load}={V_{load}\over R}={120V\over1k\Omega}=120mA
$$
3. Determine the current for each line from each of the secondary of the transformer to the load $I_{secondary_{line}}$.
$$
I_{load}=I_{secondary_{line}}\\
\therefore\\
I_{secondary_{line}}=120mA
$$
4. Determine $I_{secondary_{\phi}}$.
$$
WYE\ config\\\therefore\\I_{secondary_{\phi}}=120mA
$$
5. Determine $I_{primary_{\phi}}$.
$$
I_{primary_{\phi}}={I_{secondary_{\phi}}\over a};\ a=34.\overline6\\
I_{primary_{\phi}}={120mA\over 34.\overline6}\approx3.5mA
$$
6. Determine $I_{primary_{line}}$.
$$
I_{primary_{line}}=I_{primary_{\phi}}*\sqrt3\\
I_{primary_{line}}=5.996mA\approx6mA
$$
7. Determine $I_{generator_{line}}$.
$$
I_{generator_{line}}=I_{primary_{line}}\\\therefore\\I_{generator_{line}}\approx6mA
$$
8. Determine $I_{generator_{\phi}}$.
$$
I_{generator_{\phi}}=I_{primary_{\phi}}\\\therefore\\I_{generator_{\phi}}\approx3.5mA
$$
