it trips the breaker

Answer

The transformer will overheat. But this is not necessarily a bad thing, providing the transformer is also allowed to operated below load, during which time it can then cool down. This cycle of overload/below load operation is quite usual for distribution Transformers.

How transformer output connections get burn?

Poor connections could result in arcing; the transformer could be overloaded as well, resulting in more current flowing through them than designed.

What happens if a 208VAC primary voltage is connected to a 240VAC stepdown transformer to 208VAC?

The transformer will act as a step down transformer in the ratio of 240 to 208. This will reduce the 208 input to 180.

Because of fire


What happens when frequency is increased of transformer?

When the frequency of a transformer is increased, the core losses of the transformer increase due to increased eddy current losses and hysteresis losses. This results in a rise in temperature of the transformer. Additionally, higher frequency can affect the impedance of the transformer and alter the voltage regulation and efficiency.


What happens if dc supply is connected to incomer of transformer?

If a DC supply is connected to the incomer of a transformer, you effectively have a short circuit, because the DC impedance of a transformer (actually, any inductor) is quite low. You will blow something.


What is the condition for zero voltage regulation of a single phase transformer?

zero volatge regulation means the terminal volatge of transformer at full load on a given power factor become equal to the rated teriminal volatge of transformer , it happens only for leading power factor in transformer
