PROBLEM: • The following figures were obtained from tests on a 30-kVA, 3000/110-V transformer: Open Circuit test: 3000V ; 0.5A : 350W; Short Circuit test: 150V ; 10A ; 500W Calculate the efficiency of the transformer at (a) full-load, 0.8 p.f. (b) half-load, unity p.f. (c) calculate the kVA output at which the efficiency is maximum.
