EEE 361 Lab pre work 2

Instructions: (i) Pre work should be done by each student on his own. The copied pre-work
would be marked as zero (ii) The students are expected to write reports of pre work on
computer (iii) The pre work should be submitted on time (iv) Bring calculator in lab

1) (a)What is the main purpose of doing open circuit and short circuit test of
transformers? (b) Draw the schematic diagrams of both open circuit and short
circuit tests

2) A 1000-VA 230/115-V transformer has been tested to determine its equivalent

circuit. The results of the
tests are shown below.
Open-circuit test Short-circuit test
VOC = 230 V VSC = 19.1 V
IOC = 0.45 A ISC = 8.7 A
POC = 30 W PSC = 42.3 W
All data given were taken from the primary side of the transformer.
(a) Find the equivalent circuit of this transformer referred to the low-voltage side of
the transformer.
(b) Find the transformers voltage regulation at rated conditions and (1) 0.8 PF
lagging, (2) 1.0 PF, (3) 0.8
PF leading.
(c) Determine the transformers efficiency at rated conditions and 0.8 PF lagging.

3) What is voltage regulation of the transformer?
