Example 32.4 A 25 KVA transformer has 500 turns on the primary
and 50 turns on the secondary winding. The primary is connected to
3000V, 50 Hz supply. Find the full-load primary and secondary
currents, the secondary emf and the maximum flux in the core.
Neglect leakage drops and no-load primary current.

Now, full load I1=2500/3000=8.33 A.
Full load I2=I1/K=108.33=83.3 A
EMF per turn on primary side= 3000/500= 6 V
So, secondary emf= 650= 300 V

Example 32.11 A single phase transformer has 1000 turns on the
primary and 200 turns on the secondary. The no load current is 3 A
at a pf 0.2 lagging. Calculate the primary current and pf when the
secondary current is 280 A at a pf of 0.8 lagging.
K=200/1000=1/5.

Polarity Test and Voltage Ratio
Test
This test aims at finding
• The voltage ratio between HV and LV windings
from which one can determine the NHV/NLV.
• The polarity of the secondary winding with
reference to the primary winding.
• When the HV winding voltage rating is more
than the supply voltage , it is preferable to
connect the LV side as primary and HV side as
secondary.
