A)
Power transformer
B)

C)
Current transformer
D)
Step-up transformer

Correct Answer : Option (C) :   Current transformer


Explanation : The secondary winding of the current transformer is always kept closed because if it open-circuited, the current transformer would develop an extremely high voltage across the secondary terminals. It may lead to damage to the transformer insulation as well as arcing across the terminal.
