Electrical and Electronic Engineering (EEE) : Transformers - Quiz(MCQ)
The full-load copper loss of a transformer is 1600 W. At half-load, the copper loss will be
A)
400 W
B)
800 W
C)
1600 W
D)
6400 W

Correct Answer : Option (A) :   400 W


Explanation : Copper losses are defined as I2*R losses many times, as they are directly proportional to the square of current flowing through them. Thus, copper losses will reduce if load is reduced that too in square proportion.
