Q.) Explain the procedure of conducting the sc test.

Q.) Give the purpose of conducting the oc test.

Q.) Give the purpose of conducting the sc test.

Q.) A 1000/300V, 50Hz , single phase transformer on test give the

result as follows:
OC test (on high voltage side): 1000V
SC test (on low voltage side): 60V

0.25A

100W

At pf 0.9 lagging the voltage regulation of transformer at full load

is 4.5%.

Q.) Tests are conducted on a 50kVA, 6400/250V, 50Hz, single

phase transformer. The results are as follows:
