The dc tests that can be done on a transformer are to measure the resistance of each windings and to measure the insulation resistance between the windings and between each winding and the transformer case.

What is the procedure to polarity test a 3 phase transformer?
A 'polarity test' is conducted on a single-phase transformer, not a three-phase transformer (or transformer bank). The polarity of a single-phase transformer being important if two transformers are to be connected in parallel, or three transformers are going to be connected to form a three-phase transformer bank.'Angular displacement' is, to a three-phase transformer, what 'polarity' is to a single-phase transformer. So you really should be asking about angular displacement, rather than polarity. Angular displacement, or 'phase displacement', is the angle by which the secondary line voltage lags the primary line voltage.Angular displacement can be determined either by drawing a phasor diagram of the three-phase connection and measuring it, or by looking up the connection in a vector-group chart/table -you would nor normally 'calculate' angular displacement.
What is the significant relationship of the no load loss in excitation current test in transformer?
The no load losses are the losses caused by energizing the transformer. These are constant losses, regardless of loading. This in effect tells you the efficiency of the transformer. (Power in) - (no load losses) = (Power out)
What is the role of magnetizing current in transformer?
connect 3 - phase supply to transformer primary winding.....keep transformer secondary winding open..... apply 3-phase voltage i.e.400v ac, and measure the amount of current flowing in each phase of the transformer primary winding...this current is the transformer magnetising current..... we can keep multimeters in series with the source....so we can measure directly the current readings.....(keep multimeters in current mode, and generally magnetising current will come in terms of milli amps for 400 v )
What is no load current of a 15MVA 33 11KV transformer?
No load current is excitation current, and is usually specified as a certain percent of base KVA rating at a specific voltage (often tested at 90, 100, and 110% rated voltage). This can be found in the test report for the specific transformer in question, or should be supplied by the manufacturer. Note it is specified as a percent of base, so if heated up from the high side, the current will be less than from the lowside - the transformer's excitation takes the same amount of power regardless of energizing voltage. You could test this roughly yourself by applying rated voltage to the lowside, and measuring the induced current. The load current for a single phase 11kVA transformer would be: 11K / (L-N voltage).
What is the use of back to back test in transformer?
Back to back test give data for finding the regulation , efficiency and heating under load condition. Back to back test is performed in the presence of two identical transformer. In this test one transformer remains open and other remains loaded. Hence sumpner's back to back test is generalised form of o/c test and s/c test which is performed within one test only. Hence from this test we find core loss and full load copper loss simultaneously at a time.
What is load test on single phase transformer?
A load test on a transformer is done to make sure it stays within its designed temperature range while on full load.
How do you test a single phase transformer?
with an meg ohm meter
Why you use upf wattmeter for short circuit test on load test on single phase transformer?
If, by 'upf', you mean 'unity power factor', then allwattmeters measure the in-phase component of the load current, so the term is quiet unnecessary.A short-circuit test is used to determine the (true) power loss in the transformer, which is exactly what a wattmeter measures
What is the purpose of conducting sc and oc test of single phase transformer?
to determine the transformer characteristics...
Procedure for sumpners test?
Procedure for sumpners test is the single phase transformer. This is a back to back test.
What is the purpose of OC and SC tests on single phase transformer?
Open circuit and short circuit tests are performed to determine transformer characteristics. In the case of a single phase transformer, SC tests would be performed to determine the impedance. The open circuit test will give excitation information (% excitation at specific voltages, often 90%, 100% and 110%, and no load losses).
How do you zero phase current tranformer test?
How do you zero phase current transformer test

Why in no load test transformer is connected on low voltage side?
A no-load test is done with the normal supply connected in the way the transformer is intended to be used. It is also known as an open-circuit test to distinguish it from a short-circuit test, and its purpose is to measure the power loss in the iron core of the transformer and the no-load current drawn from the supply.
What is the significant relationship of the no load loss in excitation current test in transformer?
The no load losses are the losses caused by energizing the transformer. These are constant losses, regardless of loading. This in effect tells you the efficiency of the transformer. (Power in) - (no load losses) = (Power out)
Load test on 3 phase induction motor?
When you do a load test on a 3-phase induction motor you are checking the power factor, viz slip, and efficiency of the motor. You can test various loads with this test.
What are the purposes of performing no load test for the transformer?
These two tests are performed on a transformer to determine (i) equivalent circuit of transformer(ii)voltage regulation of transformer(iii) efficiency of transformer. The power required for theseOpen Circuit test and Short Circuit test on transformeris equal to the power loss occurring in the transformer.
