1. (a) Discuss in detail about on-load tap changing of a transformer.
(b) A 100 KVA, 3-phase, 50 Hz, 3,300/400 V transformer is connected on the
h.v side and Y connected on the l.v side. The resistance of the h.v winding in

2. (a) Discuss the construction details of a transformer. Mention how hysteresis and
eddy current losses are minimized.
(b) A 2200/200 V, transformer takes 1A at the H.T side on no-load at a p.f of
0.385 lagging. Calculate the iron losses, if a load of 50A at a power of 0.8
lagging is taken from the secondary of the transformer. Calculate the actual
primary current and its power factor. [7+8]
3. A 3 phase, 80kW, 200V, 50 Hz induction motor has a full load e ciency of 83%

(b) The rotor resistance and stand still reactance per phase of a 3 phase induction

load torque at half the full load speed. Also calculate the power factor. [7+8]
5. A single phase 200/400 V, 6 KVA, 50 Hz transformer gave the following results.

(b) the e ciency at full load with 0.8 lagging p.f. [15]
6. Justify the following for 3-phase induction motor
(a) Rotor leakage impedance at starting is di erent form its value at normal run-

(b) Relative field between stator eld and rotor eld is zero.
(c) Stator current rises as the shaft load is increased. [15]
7. (a) Derive the condition for maximum e ciency of a transformer.
(b) A 25 KVA, 2400/120 V, 50 Hz transformer has a high voltage winding re-
sistance of 0.1 and a leakage reactance of 0.22. The low voltage winding
resistance is 0.035 and leakage reactance is 0.012. Find the equivalent
circuit parameters when refered to the high voltage side. [7+8]
8. (a) Explain briefly the di fferent methods of speed control from rotor side of 3
phase induction motor.
(b) The stand still impedances of outer and inner cages of a double cage induction
motor are (4+j2.4) ohm and (1+j7) ohm respectively. Determine the slip at
which the cages develop equal torque. [7+8]
