Primary and secondary windings of a core type transformer have circular coil section to reduce the mean length of each turn so that it require minimum conductor material and thus have less copper loss which will increase the efficiency.

Kajal Yadav answered |
In an ideal transformer there is no-loss (either in winding or core). The leakage reactance is also zero (as no-voltage drop).
Magnetizing current is zero due to infinite permeability of core.
Magnetizing current is zero due to infinite permeability of core.

Harshitha Pillai answered |
Hence, voltage to be raised, for maintaining rated voltage = 4.6%.
Thus, tap setting required on the HV side = -4.6% or 4.6 % down.
