A distribution transformer is one of the types of transformer. They are used only for distribution purposes. These transformers can be easily seen in your localities. The distribution transformers (generally pole mounted) are those installed in the location to provide utilization voltage at the consumer terminals. The secondary of a distribution transformer is connected directly … Read more

A transformer is an important device used for stepping up or stepping down voltage or current without changing the frequency. It is a highly efficient device due to the absence of rotating parts. There are different parts of transformer. In this article, we will see the transformer parts and their functions. Let see each part … Read more

The performance of a transformer can be determined with the help of two important performance indicators i.e. transformer efficiency and transformer voltage regulation. In this article, we will see what is transformer efficiency. We will also derive the condition of maximum efficiency. Transformer Efficiency Definition The efficiency of a transformer is defined as the ratio … Read more

The all day efficiency of transformer is related to the distribution transformer. It is used to find the efficiency of the distribution transformer. As we know that efficiency of a transformer is given by the ratio of output power to the input power. This is true when a transformer is subjected to the same load … Read more

Power transformer and distribution transformer are two types of transformer. Both transformers have different features. In this article, we will learn the difference between power and distribution transformer. The main difference between power transformer and distribution transformer is that power transformer operates during load period whereas distribution transformer operates in both load and no-load period. … Read more

A transformer is an important electrical device used in transmission and distribution systems. It step-up or step-down voltage or current. There are different types of transformer used for different applications. In this article, we will see transformer types and their important features. Different Types of transformer The transformer can be classified as (1). Based on … Read more

A transformer is a commonly used device used to step up or step down voltages in the transmission and distribution of electricity. The transformer rating is decided by the manufacturer. The manufacturer put a name plate on a transformer. This name plate has voltage rating, current rating, VA rating, and frequency rating written on it. … Read more
