The use of higher flux density in the transformer design ---

  • A. decreases the total weight / kVA
  • B. increases the total weight / kVA
  • C. decreases the weight of iron / kVA but increases that of copper
  • D. decreases the weight of copper / kVA but increases that of iron

Answer: A. decreases the total weight / kVA

Explanation: Higher flux density permits a smaller core and winding, reducing total weight per kVA.
