Introduction The open-circuit test, or "no-load test", is one of the methods used in electrical engineering to determine the no-load impedance in the excitation branch of a transformer. In this experiment, open-circuit test is conducted on single-phase and three-phase transformer to determine the iron core resistance, Rc and magnetized reactance, Xm.
The purpose of short-circuit test is to determine the series branch parameters of the equivalent circuit of a Real transformer. The series branch parameters is the summation of primary and referred secondary resistances and reactance if refer to primary sides. In other words, short-circuit test is conducted on single-phase and three-phase transformers to determine the winding resistance, Req and leakage reactance, Xeq.
The aim of this experiment is to measure, determine and analyses the parameters of single-phase or three-phase transformer and torque-speed characteristics of rotating machines.
Besides that, we are required to differentiate the construction and winding of single-phase or three-phase transformer. Through this experiment, we have to develop the connection wiring for single-phase and three-phase transformer and
