i hope this may be correct answer but iam not sure
this is because if the short circuit test is performed first, because of induction effect
some amount of energy is stored in the transformer or motor and while performing the open circuit test there may be a chance of getting error bcz of stored charge as in open circuit test the amount of current is vvv less wnen compared to short ckt

we can make an open circuit by disconnecting the wire or break the circuit and a closed circuit is made by connecting all wires with the contents of the circuits.
Open Circuit test is done to find out core losses of the transformers.which include Eddy Current Losses and Hysteresis Losses only, if during open circuit test secondary will have some load then I2R losses due to load current in secondary as well primary will be included in test results which is not desired while performing Open circuit test.
An open circuit, by definition, has no continuity, therefore there is no current flow. A failed capacitor in an open circuit would have absolutely no effect.
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.
Short circuit test and open circuit test are widely used to test the efficiency of the transformer.
The general answer is that a continuity tester is used to check for an open circuit.
Open circuit means the circuit is not continuous . A short circuit is continuous but has a fault connecting between either live to neutral or earth .As result of this we saw that this answer is unsufficent to explain short and open circuit on the other hand you can use this answer also like i did:)

In case of open circuit test of transformers we measure iron losses and hence the power lost here is being measured by the wattmeter.
For open circuit test of transformer, the secondary is open circuit and the circuit impedance is largely inductive due to the core impedance having high L as compared to R. hence the power factor is reduced, thus , we use low power factor wattmeters.
it just happens that way retard
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)
Since this is an open circuit test, there is no load attached, thus all losses must be internal to the transformer.
