Transformer Impedance and Voltage Regulation Quiz…

Q: What is the primary purpose of transformer impedance?

To limit fault current. — Transformer impedance restricts current flow during faults, protecting equipment.

Q: Voltage regulation of a transformer is defined as the percentage change in secondary voltage from:

No-load to full-load at unity power factor. — Voltage regulation compares no-load to full-load voltage at a specified power factor.

Q: A transformer with a lower impedance will generally have:

All of the above. — Lower impedance implies less opposition to current flow. Thus, fault current is higher, voltage drop is lower, and voltage regulation is lower.

Q: Which of the following factors affects transformer impedance?

All of the above. — Impedance depends on winding parameters, core properties, and their interactions.

Q: A transformer with a voltage regulation of 5% indicates that the secondary voltage drops by ___% from no-load to full-load at a specific power factor.

5 — Voltage regulation directly represents the percentage voltage drop.
