    Secondary concentric neutral terminations

    Hey all, Had a question regarding concentric grounding terminations. We have a 138 - 25 kV delta-Yg power transformer feeding 25 kV switchgear via 3 circuits of 25 kV - 750 kcmil triplexed cable with concentric neutrals on each phase. Our standard is to have the concentric neutral tied to the...
