Q. If the coils of a transformer are made up of thick wire, then
A) Eddy currents loss will be more
B) Magnetic flux leakage is reduced
C) Joule’s heating loss is increased
D) Joule’s heating loss is reduced
Explanation
(d) When wire is thick, its resistance reduces. Therefore, Joules’ heating loss is reduced.
