multiple choice questions on transformer # 2


                            Hi friends, this post is about transformer objectives. These are some of the questions asked in previous question papers of Gate, IES and other competitive exams. check out and comment if you have any doubts.....

transformer objectives 2

Ans:A

3) On no-load phasor diagram of transformer, the core loss component of the current remains in phase with
A) no-load current
B) primary supply voltage
C) core flux
D) primary induced voltage

Ans:B
