  1. In a transformer, if the iron losses and copper losses are 40.5 kW and 50 kW respectively, then at what fraction of load will the efficiency be maximum?
    1. 0.8
    2. 0.57
    3. 0.70
    4. 0.9
Correct Option: D

Efficiency is maximum, when
x²Pc = Pi
where, x = fraction of loading
Pc = full load copper loss
Pi = normal voltage iron loss.
It gives x = 0.9.
