At what load maximum effiecency will be obtained Distribution transformer and Genarating transform..

Answer / sandipan

In case of distribution transformer max efficiency occurs
in 50% load.Because it is never fully loaded(vary from day
to night). Therefore,it is designed so that it's max
efficiency occurs on below full-load/around 1/2load.

In case of Genarating transformer max efficiency occurs in
full-load.Because it is always fully loaded. Therefore,it
is designed so that it's max efficiency occurs on full-
load.

Answer / iamdon

Distribution transformers are designed to give maximum
efficiency at around 50% of rating.Where as generating
transformers are designed to give maximum efficiency in the
range of 75-80 %

Our Alternator nameplate specifies a power factor of 0.8. When the Alternator is on light load, the bus bar voltage rises to 11240 volts, whereas the standard value is 10500 volts. Is it ok to increase the power factor to 0.85 or 0.9. I am afraid because the power factor on the name plate is only 0.8 ?
