to follow up on this, what DOES happen if you use a double size xfmr to make it "more efficient?" If one adds the actual WATTS losses, they will see this more efficient xfmr actually is LESS efficient at 1/2 load would he not? 1.28% of 800kva= 10,240watts loss........ 2.15% above is 8597.6watts loss on the 400kva transformer for the same load? Which is "MORE" efficient?
efficiency is power in/ power out so just to state a transformers different load points by itself is silly.
