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.
