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.
When the transformer is connected to the power source the secondary current is 0 what is the possible fault in the transformer?
A secondary current of 0 would suggest to me that the secondary circuit is open. A normally operating circuit with zero current flow would be very unusual. No load in secondary circuit. No secondary current can also be attributed to the primary power source open or an open primary winding.
Why should the secondary of a voltage transformer not be short circuited?
A voltage transformer takes a primary voltage and steps it down to a smaller secondary voltage. This type of transformer will attempt to keep the secondary voltage at a specific ratio of the primary voltage. If you short it, massive current flow in the secondary is required to do this. For a similar reason a CT should never be open circuited - because it attempts to push a specific ratio of primary current through the secondary. If you open circuit the secondary, it takes a massive voltage on the secondary to accomplish this.
What happens when a light bulb is connected to the output coil of the transformer?
Assuming that the voltage rating of the lamp matches the rated secondary voltage of the transformer, the lamp will operate at its rated power.
Why does transformer draws current when secondary is kept open?
A: If the transformer is connected to a power input of course it will draw current. The primary is a long wire it has own resistance wrap around an iron core. Of course there will be primary current whether there is a load on the secondary or not.
Why keep a voltage transformer secondary open?
it is keep open so as to supply voltage to the loadAnswerThe secondary winding of a transformer is NOT necessarily kept open, unless you want to disconnect its load.

Does transformers draw any current when secondary is open?
-Yes, the transformer draw current when secondary open. Because, the secondary of the transformer is open, the primary draws only no-load current, which will have some copper loss. Therefore, power is no longer transferred from primary to secondary in this approximation, and negligible current goes through the secondary windings.Some current will flow through the primary as well as secondary to magnetise the core to maintain the internet relaship between primary &secondary winding as the winding consist of small resistance it is neglected practically hence the current will at at no load also which is small in magnitude compared to the full load current.Thta is why we says that transformer draws current when secondary is open.
Can infinite voltage be given at transformer primary?
no, infinite voltage can't be given to the primary of the transformer....if the secondary is connected to the load, then over voltage will damage the load, if secondary is open circuited, then the infinite voltage can breakdown the transformer internal insulation,
When secondary coil is open there is no current in the primary coil WHY?
I am assuming the question is about the power / distribution transformer and not the current transformer. The primary current is a function of load connected on secondary. With the open secondary, there is no load, no current, it is open circuit. Hence no primary current. However there is always some small amount of no load current in the primary winding.
Is it necessary to connect a fuse at the secondary side of a current transformer?
Definitely NOT! An open circuit (across a melted fuse for example) on the secondary side of a current transformer is subject to a dangerously-high voltage, so a fuse must not be fitted. The secondary side of a CT must never be open circuited.
Why transformer does not rotate when its secondary is connected to bearing?
How do you connect the transformer's secondary to the bearings.
How current transformer get burn when open circuit happens?
Because of fire
What happens when current transformer is replaced by a capacitor?
You will end up with no current output on the secondary side of the CT.

Why does a phase in secondary side in distribution transformer give low voltage?
transformer is busted; if input voltage is normal you have short circuit or open circuit somewhere
