Why is Power Factor of Transformer is Poor at no Load?
The transformer draws no load current from the supply source when its secondary is open circuit. The no-load current has two components: magnetization current(Im) and
Why an Induction Motor is almost constant Speed Motor?
At no load the speed is closest to its synchronous speed. This running speed reduces further when loaded towards its full load capacity, to about 5% for a moderately rated machine tojust more than 5% for smaller rated machine.
Instrument Safety Factor of Current Transformer
The current transformer is used for measuring the current. The specifications of the measuring class CT are given below. The Instrument Safety Factor (ISF) is a
