PS Class CT Specifications & its applications
In this post, we will discuss the PS class CT specifications & its application. Without the use of PS class CT, differential protection can not
Transformer
Transformer is the static piece of equipment used for step up and step down the voltage for economic transmission and utilization of electrical power.
In this section we are adding all the technical articles related to transformer like step up transformer, step down transformer, ideal transformer, efficiency and losses, regulation, percentage impedance.
We will also discuss about parallel operation of transformers, copper loss and no load losses and its calculation, all types of routine and type tests, converter duty transformer,dry type transformer, k factor of transformer, maintenance of oil filled and dry type transformer, transformer protection equipment like buccoltz relay, PRD and oil and winding temperature measurement etc.
We will also discuss about the open and short circuit test on transformer.
What is PS Class CT? Its Characteristics
PS Class CT is a special class CT used for differential protection of HT motor, generator, and transformer. The PS class CT is also called
What is a Step-up & a Step-down Transformer? Definition
Definition-step-up and step-down transformer: Step-up transformer step-up the primary voltage. On the other hand, the step-down transformer step-down the primary voltage. Thus, the secondary side
Difference Between High, Medium and Low Voltage Transformers
Difference Between High, Medium, and Low Voltage Transformers – A step-down voltage transformer reduces a higher level voltage to a lower level. A step-up voltage
What is Eddy Current Loss?-Definition and Expression
Eddy Current Loss When magnetic material comes under a magnetic field generated by alternating current, an emf induce in the core material according to Faraday’s
Difference between Copper Loss and Iron Loss
In this article, we will discuss the difference between copper loss and iron loss of the transformer. what are copper loss and iron loss and
Why is the core of a power transformer grounded?
Transformer is a static piece of equipment and it has primary and secondary winding. The low voltage winding has few turns of wire wound around
Why PS Class Current Transformer is used for Differential Protection?
What is Differential Protection? Differential protection is used for detecting the fault in a particular zone. Therefore, we call it also unit or zone protection.
What is the disadvantage of large exciting current in a transformer?
What is Exciting current? The exciting current in the transformer produces the magnetic flux in the core. When energizing transformer at no load, transformer draws
Difference between no load, exciting, and leakage current in transformer
The no-load current of a transformer is the vector sum of the exciting current and core loss current of the transformer. Why Losses in a
