  1. A 2 kVA transformer has iron loss of 150 Watts and full - load copper loss of 250 Watts. The maximum efficiency of the transformer would occur when the total loss is _______ W .
    1. 3 W
    2. 100 W
    3. 30 W
    4. 300 W
Correct Option: D

When variable loss becomes equal to constant loss, efficiency is maximum. Thus at maximum efficiency of this transformer, total loss = 150 × 2 = 300 W
