Single Phase Transformer and Application of Single Phase Transformer
The transformer transforms voltage from one level to another without changing the power and frequency. The transformer is static electrical equipment, and it does not … Read more
Shell Type Transformer- Construction, Working & Applications
The HV and LV winding is wound around the central limb. The central limb carries the entire flux (Ф ). The flux (Ф ) divides into two equal part and thus each side limbs carries the half (Ф/2 ) of the total flux(Ф ). As a result, cross section area of the central limb is two times of the side limbs area.The arrangement of the winding around the central limb is as given below.
Transformer Ratings- Formulas and Solved Problems
The maximum current a transformer can deliver to loads at the rated voltage is known as a transformer rating. It is expressed in VA, kVA, … Read more
Why Motor rated in KW instead of KVA?
The induction motor and the transformer work on the same principle, that is, Faraday’s law of electromagnetic induction. The motor is rated in kW instead of KVA, … Read more
What is the Difference between kW and kVA?
kW is the unit of active power that is consumed by the load for doing real work. The real power drawn from the system is … Read more
Electric Current and Theory of Electricity
What is Electric Current? The electric current flows in the circuit if a potential difference exists. The potential difference is the pressure that causes the … Read more
How to Calculate NGR Resistance Value?
What is NGR? NGR-Neutral Grounding Resistance. NGR limits the ground fault current to the equipment’s safe operating current range to protect all the electrical equipment. … Read more
