What is the formula for calculating Transformer Losses &
Efficiency. I want to compare the Transformer efficiency at
different loading condition.

Answer Posted / kashifhabib

Efficiency = (Output/Input)*100
&
Output (KW)= KVA * Power Factor
Input = Output + Iron losses + Copper losses
Iron losses are due to Primary voltage so remains constant
can be calculated by open circuit test
Copper losses are due to secondary current I*I*R
can be calculated by short circuit test
Exp: Full load copper losses 800 W
1/2 load copper losses will be 200 watts

Is This Answer Correct ?    368 Yes 101 No
