However, these formulas need modification in order to work when the WYE sections (halves) are not equal.
Actually this method with section 1 with 3 units and section 2 with 2 units will give us five (5) units in parallel. The voltage on the remaining units using (12) is for equal halves. Therefore, we have to force this to work for us by making N=2 ½. This gives us
N=2 ½
S=1
F=1
VT=V=7200 Volts
However, this will not give us the exact current when units are lost in different WYE sections. We will now develop the neutral current by removing units in phase A from the different WYE section.
For our work we will again only consider one series group
From Section 2 with one unit removed in phase "A" we have
Removing one unit from "A" phase in section 2 we have the following
From (4) 
This gives "A" phase voltage (VA’N’) of
The current in "A" phase (IA’N’) is
.
To determine the voltage on phase B AND C we can use (8)
The effective KVAR for this phase will be 
The current in VB’N’ is
Section 1 neutral current is 26.8AMPS – 23.84AMPS = 2.96AMPS.
From section 1 the neutral current will be
Phase A voltage is the same as section 2, at 7714.08 Volts.
The phase "A" current will be
For IB’N’ the VB’N’ will be the same as section 2 = 6795Volts, again
Section 1 neutral current is 44.6AMPS –40.26AMPS = 4.34AMPS.
The neutral current with one unit removed in section 2 is 4.34 + 3.7 = 8.04 AMPS
From section 1 with one unit removed in phase "A" we have
Removing one unit from "A" phase in section 1 we have the following
From (4)
This gives "A" phase voltage (VA’N’) of
The current in "A" phase (IA’N’) is
.
To determine the voltage on phase B AND C we can use (8)
The effective KVAR for this phase will be 
The current in VB’N’ is
Section 1 neutral current is 40.26AMPS – 35.714AMPS = 4.55AMPS.
From section 2 the neutral current will be as follow:
Phase A voltage is the same, as section 1, at 7714.08 Volts and multipliers will be the same as above.
Therefore, phase "A" current will be
1.714 * 27.777 = 29.761 AMPSphase "B" current will be
For IB’N’ the VB’N’ will be the same as section 2 = 6795Volts, again
Section 2 neutral current is 29.76AMPS –26.84AMPS = 2.92AMPS.
The neutral current between sections with one unit removed in section (1) is 4.55 + 2.92 = 7.47 AMPS
If two units are remove in one of the phases we can see the effect.
Again using formula (2) we have
.
This gives use 1.1538 times 7200 = 8308 Volts across the affected leg. We will continue with phase "A" in section (1).
The current in this leg we use formula (5)
We will not go through the rigors of obtaining all the numbers but will look at the pertinent values.
The voltage on phase B and C will be 6714.55 Volts and the current in these legs will be 38.86 AMPS. The neutral current in this section is
38.86 Amps-28.846 Amps = 10.014 Amps.
In section (2) the phase "A" voltage 8303 Volts, the effective KVAR is 266 KVAR and current in this leg is 32.017 amps.
Phase "B" and "C" voltage will be same section (1), 6714 Volts and the effective KVAR is 173.94 KVAR. The current in phase "B" and "C" will be 25.9 amps.
The neutral current in section (2) is
32.017 amps – 25.9 amps = 6.11 amps
The neutral current between sections with two units removed in section (1) is 10.014 + 6.11 = 16.12 amps
If two units were removed in section (2) the neutral current between sections would be approximately 33amps.
