Most people would agree that hv Transformers, if that means transformers for over 1000 v, are never small.
The size of a transformer is determined by physical limits. The iron-based magnetic core of a transformer is a material with a limit to the permitted flux-density allowed if losses are to be kept to a reasonable level. Therefore the core size is determined by the maximum magnetic flux required, whch in turn sets the volts-per-turn figure for the windings.
The current in the windings is set by the size of wire used, which depends on the number of turns required. A large core allows fewer turns for a given voltage, therfore thicker wire can be used. Therefore a larger core allows thicker wire and more current.
Thus the size of a transformer is set by its power-handling requirement. HV transformers are increased in size by the need to maintain adequate insulation on the high-voltage windings.

What is the meaning of 32Yd1 on a transformer?
This is 3 Nos Two Winding Transformers put together to form of Three Phase transformer, HV is Star Connected & LV is Delta Connected in the LV phase is leading by 30 Degree with respect to HV phase
What is the output voltage of a transformer if the turns ratio is 0.5?
It is a Step-Up Transformer which has 2 times voltage in secondary(HV) than primary(LV)
What is the meaning of suffix YNaOd1 in vector group of transformer?
i understand that YNaOd1 represent an auto transformer with HV winding as wye connected and loaded tertiary. Please correct me if i am wrong.
What is the purpose of a high voltage transformer?
if the transformer is distributing transformer then we shoud have to give more prefer to the high volatage to reduce losses if we distibute power at low volage there is more current which causes more losses and in hv system there is high volage and low is current so the losses are also low
How do you carry out short circuit test on power transformers?
For carrying Short Circuit Test on Power Transformer Do the following: 1] Isolate the Power Transformer from service. 2] Remove HV/LV Jumps and Disconnect Neutral from Earth/Ground. 3] Short LV Phases by Cu/Al plate which could withstand short circuit current and connect these short circuited terminals to Neutral 4] Energise HV side by LV supply (440 3ph Supply) with OLTC tap position on Normal. 5] Measure Current in Neutral, LV line voltages, HV Volatage and HV Line Currents on various OLTC Tap position. Analysis: If Neutral current is near to zero transformer windings are OK If Neutral current is higher or equal to Line current between LV Phase one of the winding is Open.
What is purpose of ten delta test on transformer?
To ascertain the life of insulation, or effectiveness of the insulation (HV to LV, HV to earth and LV to earth) of the transformer
How do you make a HV transformer on minecraft technic pack?
put a MV transformer in the middle 4x ins. HV cables on top and bottom of the middle. on the left of the middle put a electronic circut and on the right put a energy Crystal

How do you repair the HV winding of casting resin power transformer dry type 1600 kVA 66042 kV insulation class 155 C degree?
what do you mean repair hv winding whats wrong with it
Why arcing horns are used on primary side of transformer?
It's common to put arcing horns on the HV side of a power transformer to short out voltage spikes arriving from lightning strikes along the line.
Why on load or off load tap changer is always connected in the primary side of a power or distribution transformer. And why distribution and power transformer are rated MVA?
The size of any switch depends on current it carries. Your statement is true for step down transformers. The primary is HV hence less current, so the tap changer is on primary side.

How do you check transformer oil thermal stability?
An Oil Dielectric Strength Tester is the standard for qualifying Transformer Oil. Thermal Stability would involve heating and then testing. I do not know of a product which controls heat and applies the HV test.
What is difference between ICT and Transformers in power system?
A CT is a measuring device but does not step up or step down voltage like a transformer will.
What is the use of core transformer?
500w iron core transformer .that kind of size
