Transformer Design Code

This document provides the design calculations for a 3-phase core type distribution transformer with a rating of 125kVA and nominal frequency of 50Hz. The calculations determine the key transformer parameters and dimensions, including window size, core size, winding arrangements, resistances, efficiencies and losses. The maximum efficiency of 98.11% occurs at a load of around 45% of full load.
