Per unit [pu] scaling of line-to-line voltages
One per unit = 1 pu = 1xU
N
= 100 %, where U

Example 1: Secondary to per unit.
VT = 12000/110
Voltage connected to the device's input U
A
or U
B
is 110 V.
Per unit voltage is
U
PU
= 110/110 = 1.00 pu = 1.00xU
N
= 100 %
Example 2: Secondary to per unit.
VT = 12000/110
Three symmetric phase-to-neutral voltages connected to the
device's inputs U
A
, U
B
and U
C
are 63.5 V
Per unit voltage is
U
PU
=
3x63.5/110x12000/11000 = 1.00 pu = 1.00xU
N
= 100 %
Example 3: Per unit to secondary.
VT = 12000/110
The device displays 1.00 pu = 100 %.
Secondary voltage is
U
SEC
= 1.00x110x11000/12000 = 100.8 V
Example 4: Per unit to secondary.
VT = 12000/110
U
N
= 11000 V
The device displays 1.00 pu = 100 %.
Three symmetric phase-to-neutral voltages connected to the
