Voltage regulation of a transformer is

  • A.the ratio of the primary to the secondary voltage
  • B.the fall in efficiency from no load to full load
  • C.the change in flux from no load to full load
  • D.the fall in secondary voltage from no load to full load

Answer: D

Correct answer: the fall in secondary voltage from no load to full load

Regulation measures how much the secondary voltage sags when load is applied, expressed as a fraction of the no-load value. It is caused by the voltage dropped across the winding resistance and, more importantly, the leakage reactance. A low regulation means a stiff supply, which is why distribution transformers are designed for a few per cent.
