why the impedence of the transformer is expressed in percentage?

Answer Posted / euclid

Transformer impedance is a ratio
of the transformer’s normal full load current
to the current available under short circuit condition.It was stamped on every transformer nameplate. Why did they stamped it because it is a tested value after the transformer has been manufactured.
