Eddy current in transformer?

Yes, a transformer has eddy currents.


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.


What is mean by magnetizing current of transformer?

A: As current flow in the primary it will magnetize the core of the iron in the transformer that is called magnetizing.


What is mmf?

Full-form Of MMF: MAGNETO MOTIVE FORCEDefinition Of MMF ( Magneto motive Force ): Just as electromotive force ( emf ) is necessary to pass current in electric circuit, magneto motive force ( mmf ) is necessary to establish flux in the magnetic circuit. Magneto motive force is the multiplication of current flowing through the coil and the number of turns of the coil.Unit of magneto motive force ( mmf ) is ampere turn.Thus, it should be understood that the magneto motive force can be increased by increasing the number of turns in the coil or by increasing the current flowing through the coil or by increasing both.CommentThe unit of measurement of magnetomotive force is actually the ampere, although it is frequently spoken as 'ampere turn' to prevent its confusion with electric current.


How many amps does a 600 watt low voltage transformer box pull?

The transformer itself does not pull current. Whatever you connect to the transformer pulls current. Whatever the output voltage of the transformer is, divide that into 600 and you get maximum current possible without burning up the transformer. At 24V that's 25 amps.

Is it possible to use optic fiber as a core in the transformer?

No. Transformers operate on the principle of conversion of electric current to and from magnetism. Optic fiber is not ferromagnetic, nor is it conductive.


What is Energy transfer in transformer?

When current is applied to the primary side, electromotive force is induced in it. It generates magneto-motive force in the core. magneto-motive force generates flux in the core. This flux links with secondary side winding and generates electromotive force in the secondary side according to secondary side turns.


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.

why does have to short-circuit secondary wire of current 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.


How does a magneto charge a battery?

The Magneto is putting out an AC current which will have to be rectified into DC in order to charge the battery. The voltage rectifier is installed between the magneto and the battery, but the current then may also need a regulator installed so that the battery being charged does not explode.


What is magneto starter?

According to Wikipedia, a magneto starter, also called the ignition magneto, provides current or pulses for the ignition system of a spark-ignition engine, like fuel engines.


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.


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.
