Equivalent circuit of 8 kVA 400/120 V transformer
Short answer
OC test on LV gives R0=2133.3 ohm and X0=337.5 ohm referred to HV. SC test on HV gives R01=0.275 ohm, X01=0.3873 ohm, and Z01=0.475 ohm.
A 8 kVA, 400/120 V, 50 Hz single phase transformer on test gives the following results: O.C. test: 120 V, 4 A, 75 W (carried on LV side) S.C. test: 9.5 V, 20 A, 110 W (carried on HV side) Calculate the equivalent circuit parameters referred to HV side.
Method. The no-load (OC) test gives the shunt branch: , , , , . The SC test gives the series branch: , , . Values found on one side are moved to the other side by multiplying by the square of the voltage ratio.
Ratio: HV = 400 V, LV = 120 V, so to refer an LV value to HV multiply by .
From OC test (on LV side): 120 V, 4 A, 75 W
Referred to HV:
From SC test (on HV side): 9.5 V, 20 A, 110 W
The test is on the HV side, so the results are already referred to HV. (Rated HV current = 8000/400 = 20 A, so this is a full-load test.)

All values referred to HV side:
R0 = 2133.3 ohm, X0 = 337.5 ohm
R01 = 0.275 ohm, X01 = 0.387 ohm
Answer: , , , , (all referred to HV).
