T
*Xline has the argument j2 and it is realised
that if j2 is slightly less than -90°, then U
L
will have approximately the same
length as U
B
regardless of the magnitude of the transformer load current I
T
(indicated with the dashed line). The automatic tap change control regulates the
voltage towards a set target value, representing a voltage magnitude, without
considering the phase angle. Thus, U
B
as well as U
L
and also the dashed line could
all be said to be on the target value.
Assume that we want to achieve that j

= -90°, then:

If for example cosj = 0.8 then j = arcos 0.8 = 37°. With the references in
figure 82, j will be negative (inductive load) and we get:
