Type of transformers used in gas insulated substation?

Current transformer and voltage transformer . This transformers are actually measuring instruments which measures the quantity of current and voltage coming out of the substation.


How do you reduces ac no lode current in transformers?

Disconnect the primary source.


What is transformers job?

It depends on the type of transformer:transmission/distribution transformers step up or step down system voltagesisolation transformers electrically isolate two systems without affecting their voltagesmatching transformers are used in electronic circuits for impedance matchinginstrument transformers step down voltages (voltage transformers) or currents (current transformers) for measurement or protection applications


What are the advantages of instrument transformer?

'Instrument transformer' is the collective name for current transformers (CTs) and voltage (or 'potential') transformers (VTs/PTs). These transformers have two functions:to reduce the current or voltage in a high-voltage primary circuit to values that may be measured using regular ammeters or voltmeters ('burdens'), or to provide the current or voltage inputs to protection relays.to electrically-isolate their secondary burdens from the high-voltage primary circuit for the purpose of safety.


Why current transformers are required in protective relaying scheme?

Current transformers (CTs) are used to monitor the current (or lack of) in high-voltage systems, and their secondary outputs controls the behaviour of protection-system relays. The CTs (1) reduce the current to values that match the current ratings of the protective relays, and (2) electrically-isolate the relays from the high-voltage system.

Does the battery method have any limitations on testing the transformers polarity?

yes its does the higher the current will blow out the transformers


What are the functions of current transformers and the difference between current transformers and voltage transformers?

To sense the current flow across the current transformers and to monitor the current ratings. In current transformers no voltage variations occurs. but in voltage transformers it is mainly used to increase or decrease the voltage value.


Who would need to utilise current transformers?

A current transformer is used for measurement of alternating electric currents. Current transformers, together with voltage transformers are known as instrument transformers.


Can we drive relays by current transformers?

Yes, certain types of relays can be activated by current transformers.


Are Transformers used in circuits with Direct Current?

No. Transformers are used in circuits with Alternating Current. Transformers work on the principle of a "changing" magnetic field inducing a current in a conductor, and you don't get that "changing" field with Direct Current.


Acids conduct electric current by forming what?

By direct from the manufacturer! Current & Potential Transformers


Current Transformers Manufacturers?

Macroplast Transformers is a leading Current Transformers Manufacturers in India. Current transformers are devices that transform higher current value to lower current value. Current transformers provide galvanic isolation from the voltage on the primary winding while simultaneously creating a power signal that has been converted to a standard level, which in turn permits the use of standard measurement instruments and relays.
