Expert Solution
Step 1 For a single phase transformer

Given-

 Power of a transformer= 25kVA

 voltage=2400/240-V

core loss= 120 W

power factor= 0.85 lagging

R=3.45 Ω

Impedence-

Zpeq=3.45+j5.75 Ω

The full load current=25×10002400=10.41 A

power factor(p.f.)=0.85

cosϕ=0.85

φ=31.78

voltage regulation=I(Rcosφ+Xsinφ)=10.41(3.45×0.85+5.75×0.52)=61.65 V
