Impedance is important and used to calculate the maximum short circuit current which is need for sizing, circuit breakers and fuses.
Lower values of impedance will provide a reduction in regulation for a given load. The regulation is the ration of output voltage at a specified load,
compared to the output voltage at no load.
Q-TRAN’S TRANSFORMERS HAVE IMPEDANCE IN THE RANGE OF 2 % - 5 %
Impedance is expressed as a percent. This percentage represents the amount of normal rated primary voltage which must be applied
to the Transformer to produce full rated load current when the secondary windings is short circuited.
The Impedance of most ordinary transformers runs between 3% and 6%.
The maximum short circuited current is limited by the impedance of the transformer
If the load impedance is too low this will increase the current in the transformer windings. This also reduces the primary impedance that the output sees which increases tube current flow.
If the load impedance is too high, this reflects a higher than normal impedance in the primary for the output.
If the transformer has 5 % (.05) impedance, the reciprocal of .05 is 20 and maximum short circuit current is 20 times the full load current.
If the transformer has 10 % (.1) impedance. The reciprocal of .1 is 10 therefore the maximum short circuit current is 10 times the full load current.
