    ⇒ Pcu = 10.31 kW (at full-load)
    ∴ re (p.u.) =

    xe (p.u.) = √Ze² - re²
    = √0.1² - (0.02062)² = 0.0978
    ∴ Regulation = re cos θ + xe sin θ
    = 0.02062 × 0.8 + 0.0978 × 0.6 = 7.52%

    Correct Option: C

    Turn ratio =
    Phase voltage on primary side
    Phase voltage on secondary side

    =
    6000 × √3
    = 24
    415

    Correct Option: B

    Turn ratio =
    Phase voltage on primary side
    Phase voltage on secondary side

    =
    6000 × √3
