    A step up transformer operates on a 200 V line and supplies to a load of 2 A. The ratio of primary to secondary windings is 1:25. Determine the primary current.

    A)  8.8 A                                    

    B)  0.08 A

    C)  12.5 A                                  

    D)  50 A

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

                     In a step-up transformer Power in secondary = Power in primary \[{{V}_{s}}{{i}_{s}}={{V}_{p}}{{i}_{p}}\]                 ...(i) Also, from transformation ratio                 \[\frac{{{V}_{s}}}{{{V}_{p}}}=\frac{{{N}_{s}}}{{{N}_{p}}}\] Given, \[\frac{{{N}_{p}}}{{{N}_{s}}}=\frac{1}{25},\]          \[{{V}_{p}}=200\,V\] \[\therefore \]  \[{{V}_{s}}=200\times 25=5000\,V\] From Eq. (i), \[5000\times 2=200\times {{i}_{p}}\] \[\Rightarrow \]               \[{{i}_{p}}=50\text{ }A\]
