Homework questions are not entertained. Try short circuit test.

copper losses can be determined from short circuit test data. Please refer the test certificate supplied with the transformer.

Copper losses can be equated to C x N / D.

Where:

C = Chavs

N = Number of trips to stolen Transit van

D = Distance to stolen Transit van
