The primary current on a loaded transformer depends on the secondary current, which is determined by the load. So, if you know the secondary load current, then you can use the turns ratio of the transformer to determine the primary current:
Ip/Is = Ns/Np
The mgnetic inrush current is the current drawn by the transformer when power is applied to the primary winding
primary
Without knowing the type of transformer (audio/power, step-up, step-down, etc.) it's difficult to offer any advice.
Power input to a transformer = (voltage across the primary winding) x (current through the primary)Power output = (voltage across the secondary winding) x (current through the secondary)It doesn't matter whether the transformer is used in step-up, step-down or simple isolation.
I'm not sure that it is correct to say a transformer limits current under no load (maybe it is, depending on your application).A step down transformer converts a high voltage at the primary to a lower voltage at the secondary. Under no load conditions, the secondary will be an open circuit. Since The primary current relative to the secondary current will be Np/Ns (the turns ratio, primary to secondary), and the primary voltage relative to the secondary is Ns/Np, the apparent resistance at the primary due to an open at the secondary will be (Np/Ns)^2*(open circuit). Since an open circuit is typically approximated as an infinite resistance, resistance is infinite. The turns ratio in this idealized example doesn't really matter, hence the transformer doesn't really matter (only the fact that a no load means an open secondary matters).AnswerUnder no-load conditions, the primary current is limited due to the voltage induced into the primary winding, which opposes the applied voltage (Lenz's Law).
First find the ratio of the transformer. 6600/220 volts. Second find the secondary current, I = W/E, 99000/220. Third divide the secondary current by the transformer ratio. The answer will be the primary current. To check your answer (W (or VA) = V x A) multiply the primary current times the primary voltage and the secondary current times the secondary voltage and they should both equal the transformer's kVA.
The secondary current of a transformer is determined by the load and the secondary voltage applied to that load, and this, in turn, will determine the primary current by the inverse of the turns ratio. However, if you are asking about a transformer's rated secondary and primary currents, then you need to divide the transformer's apparent power rating (expressed in volt amperes) by the rated secondary and primary voltages respectively.
When the secondary of a transformer is opened, there is no longer any load on the transformer. There will be some current flowing in the primary winding, which is needed to induce the voltage in the secondary. This primary current is referred to as the "no load" current, and is indicative of the core losses in the transformer.
is it primary current ?
Tis question is incompleet.1000 va =1 kva.This is the power capacity of transformer. A transformer having 2 currents Primary current and secondary current . for that we required both voltage. Simply we can calculate by a formula Voltage x Current x 0.8(power factor)=1000.
The primary current is determined by the secondary current, not the other way around. For example, a step up transformer will step up the primary voltage in proportion to the turns ratio of the transformer. Any secondary current is then determined by the secondary voltage and the load, NOT by the primary current. The primary current is then determined by the secondary current in proportion to the reciprocal of the turns ratio.
A: As current flow in the primary it will magnetize the core of the iron in the transformer that is called magnetizing.
It depends on the voltage on line side. KVA is simply thousand volt-amps, so you need to know voltage in order to calculate amperes.Another AnswerThe rated primary current is the rated apparent power of the transformer, divided by the rated primary current. However, the actual primary current is determined by the actualsecondary load current in proportion to the reciprocal of the turns ratio.
The mgnetic inrush current is the current drawn by the transformer when power is applied to the primary winding
The primary current is determined by the secondary current. So, if you don't know the secondary current, you cannot work out the primary current.If the secondary isn't connected to the load, then the primary current is simply the primary voltage divided by the impedance of the primary winding.You can, though, work out the 'rated' primary current (i.e. the value of current the primary can carry, continuously). For a single-phase transformer, this will be its rated apparent power (in volt amperes) divided by its rated primary voltage. So, in this particular case, we are looking at:rated primary current = (50 x 103) / (11 x 103) = 4.55 A
The incoming voltage from the source to the transformer is called primary voltage.
The primary current of a transformer depends upon the secondary current which, in turn, depends upon the load supplied by the transformer. There is not enough information in the question to determine the rated primary and secondary currents of the transformer.
