AC Generator & Transformer

A transformer operating at primary voltage 8 kV8\text{ kV} and secondary voltage 160 V160\text{ V} serves a load of 80 kW80\text{ kW}. Assuming the transformer to be ideal with purely resistive load and working on unity power factor, the loads in the primary and secondary circuit would be

Show answer and solution

Answer: (c)

  1. Secondary: Is=80000160=500 AI_s = \dfrac{80000}{160} = 500\text{ A}, Rs=160500=0.32 ΩR_s = \dfrac{160}{500} = 0.32\ \Omega
  2. Primary: Ip=800008000=10 AI_p = \dfrac{80000}{8000} = 10\text{ A}, Rp=800010=800 ΩR_p = \dfrac{8000}{10} = 800\ \Omega
  3. So the answer is (c) 800 Ω800\ \Omega and 0.32 Ω0.32\ \Omega.
