Why do we twist copper to make cable?..

This is the part of the manufacturing process. When the
cable is passing through the dies to put insulation on it
the twisting holds the copper in the centre so the
insulation is even all around.

For uninsulated cables the strands would separate making
handling impossible.

A 100 kVA , 400 v/250 kv testing transformer has 8% leakage reactance and resistance on 100 KVA base . A cable has to be tested at 500 kv using the above transformer as a resonant transformer at 50 hz . if the charging current of the cable at 500 kv is 0.4 A find the series inductance required . Assume 2% resistance for the inductor to be used and the connecting leads . Neglect dielectric loss of hte cable . what will be the input voltage to the transformer ?
