In power distribution systems, three-phase transformer configuration directly impacts system reliability and load management.

An effective transformer design requires a determination of the peak values of the magnetic flux, the magnetic field strength, and the permeability of a core at low and high frequencies. These ...

AutomationDirect has added new 1-phase encapsulated core general purpose transformers and buck-boost transformers from Acme Electric. These general-purpose transformers use electrical grade silica and ...

Those readers who have experimented with winding their own inductors will know that it’s not an easy task, and when those inductors are handling high voltages it can be especially tricky to maintain ...

Electrica signature analysis (ESA) uses the magnetic field in the air gap of an electrical machine to evaluate power quality conditions. Dry and oil transofrmer types are subject to problems ...

Almost all distribution transformers produced or imported into the U.S. could require amorphous steel cores starting in 2027 under new energy efficiency standards proposed by the Department of Energy ...

A more efficient transformer can pay for itself many times over during its 25-year lifespan The transformer plays a key role in an electrical system’s efficiency and power quality, yet 95% of buying ...

Rising energy costs, the transition to renewable energy, extreme weather events, national security concerns and more have created a renewed focus on critical power grid technologies and overall grid ...
