AC Generator & Transformer

A transformer consisting of 300 turns in the primary and 150 turns in the secondary gives output power of 2.2 kW. If the current in the secondary coil is 10A, then the input voltage and current in the primary coil are:

Show answer and solution

Answer: (c)

  1. Vs=PIs=220010=220 VV_s = \dfrac{P}{I_s} = \dfrac{2200}{10} = 220\text{ V}
  2. Vp=VsNpNs=220×2=440 VV_p = V_s\dfrac{N_p}{N_s} = 220 \times 2 = 440\text{ V}
  3. Ideal: Ip=2200440=5 AI_p = \dfrac{2200}{440} = 5\text{ A}
  4. So the answer is (c) 440 V and 5 A.
