Problem-1
A transformer has 500 primary turns and 3000 secondary turns. If the primary voltage is 240 V,
determine the Secondary voltage, assuming an ideal transformer.
Solution:
For an ideal transformer, voltage ratio = turns ratio, i.e.

Problem-2
An ideal transformer with a turns ratio of 2:7 is fed from a 240 V supply. Determine its output
voltage.
Solution:
A turns ratio of 2:7 means that the transformer has 2 turns on the primary for every 7 turns on the
secondary (i.e. a step – up transformer). Thus,

Problem-5
A 5-kVA single-phase transformer has a turns ratio of 10:1 and is fed from a 2.5 kV supply.
Neglecting losses, determine:
a) the full-load secondary current.
b) the minimum load resistance which can be connected a cross the secondary winding to give
