Polarity Test
where:
Vp = test input voltage (volt)
V = voltmeter reading (volt)
Example:
A 2300/230 volt distribution transformer is tested for
polarity in accordance with the standard method. If 120
volts is impressed across the high voltage windings,
determine the voltmeter reading if the transformer has
a. additive polarity
b. subtractive polarity

TRANSFORMER BANKS
FOR
THREE-PHASE CIRCUITS
Seatwork:
1. The following data were obtained when a
short circuit test was performed upon a 100
kVA, 2400/240V distribution transformer:
Esc = 72 volts; Isc = 41.6 A; Psc = 1180W.
All instruments are on the high side during
the short circuit test. Calculate the
equivalent resistance and reactance of the
transformer.
