It is the_________of the transformer on which the magnitude of angle of overlap depends?
Correct answer: C. leakage reactance
- A. resistance
- B. capacitance
- C. leakage reactance
- D. any of the above
Explanation
During commutation, current transfer between phases is opposed mainly by the transformer’s leakage reactance. Greater leakage reactance produces a larger commutation overlap angle.
