magnetic core balance test is used to find out the flux distribution. It can conduct either in HV side or LV side.
In HV side, applying voltage between 2 phases and measuring the voltage across other phase.(eg.applying b/w U&V, and voltage b/w V&W , W&U measuring.)
In LV side, applying voltage b/w any phase....and measuring voltage across other phases.
Result: sum of measured voltage will be equal to applied voltage.

What is the meaning of magnetic balance test?
Magnetic balance test is performed on transformer to check, whether the core and windings of the transformer is balance position or not. Magnetic Balance is a test of Critical use as it helps us to enhance the efficiency and life of transformers.
Why the iron losses absent in short circuit test?
Because a short-circuit test is done at very low voltage to check the transformer windings on their maximum current. The low voltage ensures that the magnetic flux in the transformer's iron core is very low so that the eddy-current losses, usually known as iron losses, are negligible.
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.
Why the open and short ckt test of transformer is needed?
The open/short-circuit test on a transformer isn't 'needed'. It's only used if you want to find out the efficiency of a transformer.
Why us the power measured during the open circuit test considered to be approximately equal to the core loss?
During open circuit test on transformer, no load is connected across the secondary side. Hence, the total power drawn by the transformer is only to induce the voltage across the secondary, i.e., core loss AND negligible amount of primary copper loss. As the primary copper losses during open circuit are negligible, it is practice to attribute the open circuit power to core loss.

What is magnetic balance test of transformer?
The Magnetic Balance test is conducted on Transformers to identify inter turn faults and magnetic imbalance.
Why core losses are negligible in short circuit test of transformer?
I am so sorry for your core losses
Under short circuit test it is said the iron losses are almost zero why?
In a short-circuit test the normal load current is passed through the transformer with minimal voltage applied. This means that the magnetic flux density in the core is also minimal, so that the only losses are the resistive losses of the transformer windings.
Why magnetic current test in transformers?
To identify transformer winding shortage. If there is shortage between winding turns magnetic current test is the best to identify. Shaukt from Abudhabi.UAE
What is the use of sumpner's test in transformer?
this test helps in finding the core losses and copper losses in single test , it is also called as back to back test or heat run test .
What are the approximation of open circuit and short circuit test of transformer?
A short-circuit test is done to determine the power lost in the resistance of the primary and secondary windings of the transformer. It is done at full load current but with only enough voltage to give the required current with the secondary short circuited. An open-circuit test is done at full load voltage but no current is taken from the secondary, and this enables the power lost in the magnetic core of the transformer to be measured. As well a power, the tests also allow the inductances to be measured as well as the resistances, in order ot characterise the transformer fully.
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.
No load current of transformer is non sinusoidal even though sinusoidal voltage is provided in oc sc test?
eddy current loss in the transformer core is reduced by
What is the purpose of open circuit test and short circuit test of a transformer?
An open-circuit test is done with the transformer running at its rated voltage but with no load. This measures the power lost in the magnetic core. (IR Losses) A short-circuit test is done with the transformer running at its full rated current in all windings but at a low voltage. The secondary is shorted and the primary voltage is adjusted to give the rated current. This measures the power lost in the copper windings. (Copper losses)
What is dielectric test in transformer?
why need dielectric test for transformer
Why the iron losses absent in short circuit test?
Because a short-circuit test is done at very low voltage to check the transformer windings on their maximum current. The low voltage ensures that the magnetic flux in the transformer's iron core is very low so that the eddy-current losses, usually known as iron losses, are negligible.
