Equivalent circuit of 20 kVA 250/2500 V transformer from tests
Short answer
From OC test (LV): R₀ = 595.2 Ω, X₀ = 187.2 Ω. From SC test, parameters referred to LV side: R_eq = 0.05 Ω, X_eq = 0.1414 Ω. Equivalent circuit referred to HV side: R₀ = 59.52 kΩ, X₀ = 18.72 kΩ; R_eq = 5 Ω, X_eq = 14.14 Ω.
A 20 kVA, 250/2500 V transformer when tested gave the following results: O.C. test (L.V. side): 105 W, 1.4 A, 250 V S.C. test (H.V. side): 320 W, 8 A, 120 V Compute all the parameters of the equivalent circuit as referred to the L.V. side and also draw the resultant circuit as referred to H.V. side.
Shunt branch parameters come from the OC test (done on LV side, so they are directly LV values); series parameters come from the SC test (done on HV side, so they are HV values). Turns ratio .
Rated currents: LV = 20000/250 = 80 A, HV = 20000/2500 = 8 A, so the SC test was at full load.
From the OC test (LV side)
From the SC test (HV side)
Referred to LV side (divide HV impedances by )
| Parameter | LV side | HV side (×100) |
|---|---|---|
| 595.2 Ω | 59.52 kΩ | |
| 187.2 Ω | 18.72 kΩ | |
| 0.05 Ω | 5 Ω | |
| 0.1414 Ω | 14.14 Ω |
Approximate equivalent circuit referred to HV side
Req = 5 ohm Xeq = 14.14 ohm
