The efficiency of a transformer changes with changing load. To understand this, first we have to remember that what is efficiency?

So efficiency = output/(output + losses),

When the transformer is on no load, there is only core losses because at no load copper losses are almost negligible. But ad load increases, copper loss in the system also increases, so efficiency varies with load.
