A 15 KVA, 2400: 240/120 V, 60 Hz, the two-winding transformer is to be reconnected as a 2400:2520 V step-up transformer. From test work on the two-winding transformer, it is known that its rated voltage core losses and coil losses are 280 and 300 W, respectively. For this autotransformer, (a) determine the apparent power rating and (b) the full-load efficiency if supplying 2520 V to a 0.8 PF lagging load.
