Question: A 1 0 kVA, 4 8 0 / 1 2 0 V single - phase transformer is used as an autotransformer, connecting a 6 0

A 10 kVA, 480/120 V single-phase transformer is used as an autotransformer, connecting a 600 V distribution line to a 480 V load. The following data are obtained when tested as a conventional transformer, taken from the primary (480 V) side of the transformer:
a) Find the per-unit equivalent circuit of the transformer when connected in a conventional manner. What is the efficiency of the transformer under nominal conditions and a unitary power factor? What is the voltage regulation under these conditions?
b) Draw the connections of the transformer when used as a 600/480 V step-down autotransformer.
c) What is the nominal value in KVAs of the transformer when used with the autotransformer connection?
d) Answer the question in part a) for the connection as an autotransformer.
