- Refer to the transformer shown in Figure 5-13 to answer the following questions. What is the turns ratio of the winding between points B and E as compared to the winding between points D and E? Figure 5-13 Autotransformer practice problems.arrow_forwardA 480-volt three-phase load is rated at 34.5 kVA. It is to be supplied with variable three-phase voltage. Because the load is continuous, the transformers ratings are to be increased by 1.25% of the rated load. Three variable autotransformers are used to supply this load. Refer to Table 4-2 and determine the standard size of each transformer that should be used to make this connection.arrow_forwardA load impedance of 52 Ω is connected to the secondary winding of the transformer in question 3.
