The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem of finding the primary and secondary full-load current of a transformer, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Identify the given values - Primary voltage (\(V_p\)) = 2000 V - Secondary voltage (\(V_s\)) = 200 V - Power rating of the transformer (\(S\)) = 20 kVA = 20,000 VA - Number of turns in the secondary (\(N_s\)) = 66 turns ### Step 2: Calculate the primary current (\(I_p\)) Using the formula for power in terms of voltage and current: \[ S = V_p \cdot I_p \] We can rearrange this formula to find the primary current: \[ I_p = \frac{S}{V_p} \] Substituting the known values: \[ I_p = \frac{20,000 \text{ VA}}{2000 \text{ V}} = 10 \text{ A} \] ### Step 3: Calculate the secondary current (\(I_s\)) Similarly, we can use the same power formula for the secondary side: \[ S = V_s \cdot I_s \] Rearranging gives us: \[ I_s = \frac{S}{V_s} \] Substituting the known values: \[ I_s = \frac{20,000 \text{ VA}}{200 \text{ V}} = 100 \text{ A} \] ### Final Results - Primary full-load current (\(I_p\)) = 10 A - Secondary full-load current (\(I_s\)) = 100 A
