While conducting short-circuit test on a transformer the following side is short circuited?
Correct answer: B. Low voltage side
- A. High voltage side
- B. Low voltage side
- C. Primary side
- D. Secondary side
Explanation
In the standard short-circuit test, the low-voltage winding is short-circuited and a reduced voltage is applied to the high-voltage winding. This keeps the test voltage and insulation stress relatively low.
