Hello, I'm currently trying to get familiar with matpower. I have following 
problem with the 'transformer off nominal ratio'. I need to model a 
transformer. The values given are following one: U1:                            
     20 kV
U2:                                 0.4 kV
rated power:                400 kVA
no load losses:             0.61no load current (%):    0.1525u_k:              
                  3.85
Cu losses:                      4.6 kWswitching group:          Dy5  I have 
following questions: 1) how do I calculate the TAP? When I look into the 
casefiles, I can see that the value fpr the tap is most time between 0.8 and 
1.5 
     I would have calculated by dividing 20kV/0.4KV=25 which does not seem to 
be the correct value for the tap.     2) How do I identify the BR_X and BR_B ? 
When I look into the equivalent circuit diagram I know that there are more 
components that need to be calculated. So what  
    do these parameters mean for the transformer? I would be grateful for any 
help.  Kind regards,  Cansu Yildirim
