1–, 2400/240 V, 120 kVA two-winding transformer is re-configured as an autotransformer shown in the figure. The efficiency of the two- winding transformer is 98% on full load at unity power factor. Which of the following statement is true regarding the efficiency of the auto-transformer on full load unity power factor?

 
The efficiency of the auto-transformer remains same as the two winding transformer that is 98%
The efficiency of the auto-transformer will be 99.77%
The efficiency of the autotransformer will be 99.81%
None of above
Please type your answer before submitting.

When a two winding transformer is reconnected as an auto-transformer the power rating of transformer increased whereas the losses remain same because the voltage across each winding and the current through each winding remains same. This results in an increase in efficiency of the autotransformer.
