Current Transformers are found in power generation, electricity transmission & distribution, railways, industrial equipment, vessel propulsion, wind & solar renewables applications.
In each application layer there are a number of sub-application levels for current transformers; for example, accurate measurement of power, protection of electrical plant, differential protection, restricted earth fault, isolated phase busduct, interposing, and summation.

How do you convert 110v to 5v?
Depending on the application and other factors, it will TYPICALLY be best to use a transformer. If it's a low current application, you can purchase a small 5V power supply transformer for under $20.00, US.
How is current controlled in welding transformer?
in welding machine, the transformer used is basically a current transforrmer. so by changing the tap of secondary side of transformer, we can increase or decrease the current in the transformer.
What is principle of Current transformer?
why does have to short-circuit secondary wire of current transformer ?
What is the application of pluse transformer?
why should we use pulse transformer rather than ordinary transformer
Difference between potential transformer and current trasnformer?
The difference between current transformer and potential transformer is that the secondary of a current transformer can not be open circuited while under service whereas that of the potential transformer an be open circuited without any damage to the transformer.
What is zero current transformer?
It is a transformer with No load attach to it.
What is the reason for using a neutral current transformer on a transformer?
A current transformer is primarily used at the neutral point of a transformer for earth fault protection. A neutral current transformer will measure any ground fault current which will essentially flow from the star point of the transformer. A fault-detection device other devices is connected to the current transformer and, if the fault current exceeds a certain trigger value, the fault-detection device will give a trip command to an earth-fault relay to disconnect the supply of electricity to the transformer.
A transformer can only the voltage of an alternating current?
A transformer can only increase or decrease the voltage of an alternating current, and it is called step-up transformer or step-down transformer accordingly.
More the transformer impedance less the fault current... so is a high value of transformer impedance good for it?
It depends a lot on the application, i would go with low impedance transformers if am using the transformers for distribution as it will really increase the the maximum fault current. If am using the transformers as step up specially for generators or to charge capacitors, using a high impedance transformer is a good idea as it will decrease the inrush current of the system. you have to see your application and decide what fit that best.

Eddy current in transformer?
Yes, a transformer has eddy currents.
What is the name of the device that changes the ratio of a current in voltage?
A transformer. it steps up / down voltage, and steps down / up current.
What is the function of the primary current when the secondary winding of the transformer is open?
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.
