Voltage regulation under a capacitive load.
Homework Statement Why does the voltage regulation of a transformer become negative when a capacitive load is attached? It causes the voltage across the secondary winding to increases rather than decrease, as would be the case for a resistive load. But why? Homework Equations Regulation =...- breakshift

Engineering Why Conduct Open-Circuit and Short-Circuit Tests on a Transformer?
Homework Statement Hi. Why does one conduct an open-circuit and a short-circuit test on a transformer to determine its equivalent circuit parameters? I've read that a) the open-circuit test determines the parallel parameters - the R and X equating to the core loss, and b) the short-circuit...- breakshift
