Answer / koti
It is not primary, but HV side. For OLTC-above answer of
low current is OK. For Off-Ckt TC; more turns to get more taps, away from core i.e. near to tank which facilitate easy tap connections.

Answer / raju
Tapings are connected to high voltage winding side, because of low current. If we connect tapings to low voltage side, sparks will produce while tap changing operation due to high current.

In a transformer pri. Wdg. Is
always wound over sec. Wdg.
So it is not possible to
connect tap changer in sec.
Side. For this reason we use
