Principle and main function of transformer

Current transformer is an electronic component that can convert electrical energy into magnetic energy, store it under appropriate conditions, and release it and then convert it into electrical energy. The most important role of inductor is electromagnetic conversion.

All electrical conductors (transmission lines) will cause electromagnetic fields when passing current. When the electrical conductors (transmission lines) are wound into a spiral shape, the electromagnetic field will be concentrated, and the more the number of turns, the more the magnetic induction intensity. The larger the size, the greater the kinetic energy, so the inductor is actually an electrical conductor (transmission line) wound into a spiral.

Impact of Frequency on Voltage Transformers: Testing at 50Hz vs. 60Hz

Voltage transformers (VTs) are essential in electrical power systems, ensuring accurate voltage measurements and system protection. But here’s the catch—these transformers behave differently depending on frequency. Testing a voltage transformer at 50Hz versus 60Hz isn’t just about a simple number change. The shift in frequency affects magnetic flux, impedance, losses,
