Last month's Code Calculations article covered transformer calculation definitions and some specifics of delta transformer calculations. This month we turn our attention to the differences between ...
It is important for machine design engineers to understand how transformers work so they can design machinery that operates optimally within the proper voltage ranges, as well as select the right ...
The electric power industry is always looking for the best approach to better determine and continually track the condition of power transformers. It is important to understand the need for and value ...
Transformers are the most efficient electrical devices used in different places. Unexpected voltage problems do arise frequently at houses, industries, hotels, and other places. Different types of ...
Many loads are mainly resistive; thus, they’re rated in watts (i.e., true power). Simply stated, these loads have a very small reactive component, which means an apparent power rating (VA) would not ...
America is currently in the midst of a transformer super cycle. In the short term, a 2020 study by the United States' Department of Energy reported that 70 percent of the country's distribution ...
