Q6. (a) Why is it important to maintain high efficiency of operation and low values of voltages regulation for power transformers? (6)
(b) A 20 KVA, 2000/220V, single-phase transformer has a primary resistance of 2.1 Ω and a secondary resistance of 0.026 Ω, The corresponding leakage reactance’s are 2.5 Ω and 0.03 Ω. Estimate the regulation at full load under power-factor conditions of;
(i)  unity

(ii) 0.5 (lagging)

(iii) 0.5 (Leading) (10)
