The skin effect occurs in conductors carrying alternating currents, where the tendency is for the current to flow towards the surface of the conductor. The effect increases with frequency. At radio frequencies, the skin effect is so pronounced, that there is little point in using solid conductors, so tubes are used instead.
The skin effect is responsible for the so-called 'AC resistance'. This is because the skin effect acts to reduce the effective cross-sectional area of a conductor, thus increasing its resistance compared to when a DC current passes through the conductor.

Why skin effect not act on the transformer?
Skin effect is a physical effect that operates on thick conductors. In a transformer the conductors are usually too thin for any substantial skin effect to occur.

Why skin effect for a conductor is not applicable for DC?
As we know that skin effect occures in ac system.skin effect dependes on frequncy.In case of dc syastem frequncy is zero.So skin effect for conductor is not applicable for dc.

Why skin effect is frequency dependent?
skin effect occures in ac system due to un uniform distribution of current in conductor.Ac system has frequency.SO we can say that skin effect is frequecy dependent.AnswerThe skin effect is caused partly by self inductance which will only occur with a varying current -i.e. with an a.c. current.
