To draw the phasor diagram for a lagging load of a transformer, follow these steps:

### Understanding the Components

1. **Voltage (V)**: The primary voltage \( V_{p} \) and the secondary voltage \( V_{s} \) of the transformer. For simplicity, let’s consider the secondary side.

2. **Current (I)**: The load current \( I_{L} \) on the secondary side.

3. **Magnetizing Reactance (X_m)**: The reactance due to the magnetizing inductance of the transformer.

4. **Impedance (Z_t)**: The total impedance of the transformer, which includes resistance and reactance.

### Steps to Draw the Phasor Diagram

1. **Draw the Voltage Phasor**:
   - Start by drawing the secondary voltage phasor \( V_{s} \) as a reference. Typically, this is drawn horizontally to the right.

2. **Draw the Load Current Phasor**:
   - For a lagging load (inductive load), the current lags behind the voltage. Draw the load current phasor \( I_{L} \) at an angle \( \theta \) behind the voltage phasor. The angle \( \theta \) represents the phase difference due to the inductive nature of the load.

3. **Draw the Voltage Drop across Impedance**:
   - The voltage drop across the transformer impedance \( Z_t \) (which consists of resistance \( R_t \) and reactance \( X_t \)) is represented by \( V_{Z} \). This phasor will be in the direction opposite to \( I_{L} \) due to the voltage drop caused by the impedance.

4. **Draw the Voltage Phasor across Impedance**:
   - The secondary voltage phasor \( V_{s} \) is the sum of the voltage drop across the impedance and the voltage across the load. This means:
     \[
     V_{s} = V_{Z} + I_{L} \times Z_t
     \]
     You can represent \( V_{Z} \) as the vector sum of \( I_{L} \times Z_t \) and \( V_{s} \).

5. **Draw the Phasor for the Magnetizing Reactance**:
   - The magnetizing reactance \( X_m \) causes the primary voltage \( V_p \) to lead the magnetizing current. Draw the magnetizing current phasor at an angle \( \phi \) ahead of the voltage phasor \( V_{p} \). The angle \( \phi \) is small compared to the load angle.

6. **Complete the Phasor Diagram**:
   - Combine these elements to complete the diagram. Ensure all phasors are properly labeled and represent their respective phase relationships.

### Example Phasor Diagram

Here’s a simple sketch of the phasor diagram:

1. Draw \( V_{s} \) horizontally.
2. Draw \( I_{L} \) at an angle \( \theta \) behind \( V_{s} \).
3. Draw \( V_{Z} \) in the direction of \( I_{L} \times Z_t \) but opposite to \( V_{s} \).
4. Combine \( V_{Z} \) and \( I_{L} \times Z_t \) to get \( V_{s} \).

For clarity, you might want to draw the following:

- **\( V_{s} \)**: Horizontal right.
- **\( I_{L} \)**: Angle behind \( V_{s} \).
- **\( V_{Z} \)**: Drawn from the end of \( I_{L} \times Z_t \) to the origin.
- **\( I_{L} \times Z_t \)**: Drawn to show the voltage drop.

By following these steps, you can create a phasor diagram that accurately represents the behavior of a transformer with a lagging load.

A phasor diagram helps visualize the relationships between voltages and currents in AC circuits, particularly when dealing with transformers and their loads. For a lagging load, such as an inductive load, the current lags behind the voltage. Here's a step-by-step guide to drawing the phasor diagram for a transformer with a lagging load:

### 1. **Understand the Basic Components**

1. **Primary Voltage (V1)**: The voltage applied to the primary winding of the transformer.
2. **Secondary Voltage (V2)**: The voltage induced in the secondary winding of the transformer.
3. **Primary Current (I1)**: The current flowing through the primary winding.
4. **Secondary Current (I2)**: The current flowing through the secondary winding.

### 2. **Draw the Voltage Phasors**

- **Draw the Secondary Voltage (V2)**: Start by drawing a horizontal vector to represent the secondary voltage, \( V2 \). This will be your reference phasor, aligned along the real axis.

- **Draw the Secondary Current (I2)**: For a lagging load, the current lags the voltage. Draw the secondary current \( I2 \) as a vector that lags behind \( V2 \). The angle between \( V2 \) and \( I2 \) is the phase angle \( \phi \), which is positive in this case (indicating lag).

### 3. **Relate to the Primary Side**

- **Primary Voltage (V1)**: The primary voltage \( V1 \) is in phase with \( V2 \) if we assume ideal conditions (no phase shift due to the transformer itself). Thus, \( V1 \) should be drawn parallel to \( V2 \), just scaled according to the turns ratio of the transformer.

- **Primary Current (I1)**: The primary current \( I1 \) is related to the secondary current \( I2 \) by the turns ratio \( \frac{N1}{N2} \), where \( N1 \) and \( N2 \) are the number of turns in the primary and secondary windings, respectively. The phasor \( I1 \) should be scaled accordingly but will also lag behind \( V1 \) by the same angle as \( I2 \) lags behind \( V2 \).

### 4. **Draw the Phasor Diagram**

1. **Draw V2** as a horizontal line.

2. **Draw I2** lagging behind V2 by the phase angle \( \phi \).

3. **Draw V1** parallel and scaled according to the transformer turns ratio to \( V2 \).

4. **Draw I1** lagging behind V1 by the same phase angle as \( I2 \) lags behind \( V2 \).

### Summary of the Phasor Diagram

- **V2**: Horizontal line, representing the secondary voltage.
- **I2**: Line lagging V2 by the angle \( \phi \), representing the secondary current.
- **V1**: Line parallel to V2 but scaled by the turns ratio, representing the primary voltage.
- **I1**: Line lagging V1 by the angle \( \phi \), representing the primary current.

Here's a rough illustration:

```
     V2
     |  
     |
     |\
     | \
     |  \
     |   \
     |    \
     |     \ I2 (lagging)
     |
     |
     +----------------------
                        V1
```

In the diagram:
- \( V2 \) is horizontal.
- \( I2 \) lags \( V2 \) by an angle \( \phi \).
- \( V1 \) is in the same direction as \( V2 \) but scaled.
- \( I1 \) lags \( V1 \) by the same angle \( \phi \) as \( I2 \) lags \( V2 \).

This diagram shows the relationship between voltages and currents in both primary and secondary windings of a transformer with a lagging load.
