In a power or distribution transformer about 10 per cent end turns are heavily insulated
A)to withstand the high voltage drop due to line surge produced by the shunting capacitance of the end turns
B)to absorb the line surge voltage and save the winding of transformer fromdamage
C)to reflect the line surge and save the winding of a transformer from damage
D)none of the above

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The end turns in a power or distribution transformer are heavily insulated to withstand the high voltage drop due to line surge produced by the shunting capacitance of the end turns. This is necessary to protect the transformer from potential damage caused by voltage surges.
