NWEMSEXCHANGING EXPERTISE SINCE 1893NWEMSBASICS»A conductor carrying current has a magnetic field around it.»With alternating current (ac), the magnetic field expands andcontracts, reversing polarity each half cycle.EXCHANGING EXPERTISE SINCE 18934

NWEMSBASICS»When more conductors are placed near the first conductorcarrying current, a current is induced in them and in theopposite direction.EXCHANGING EXPERTISE SINCE 1893NWEMSThe main purpose of a distributiontransformer is to transform theprimary voltage level (usuallyhigh) to a specific secondaryvoltage level which is required forspecific connected equipment.EXCHANGING EXPERTISE SINCE 18935

NWEMSEXCHANGING EXPERTISE SINCE 1893NWEMSTRANSFORMER MAIN PARTS»The core, which is usually made of iron with lowmagnetic permeability.»Primary windings, a coil which receives the energyfrom the source.»Secondary windings, a coil that receives the energyfrom the primary and delivers it to the load.EXCHANGING EXPERTISE SINCE 18936

NWEMSEXCHANGING EXPERTISE SINCE 1893NWEMSCOOLANT»For distribution transformers the coolant is almost always oil.»The electrical insulating qualities of oil is excellent, as well asthe ability of oil to transmit heat away from the core and coilsto the exterior radiating surfaces.EXCHANGING EXPERTISE SINCE 18937

NWEMSTURNS RATIO»The ratio is the number of turns on the primary winding to thenumber of turns on the coil of the secondary winding.»A primary coil with 600 turns at 7200 volts coupled with asecondary coil with 10 turns will deliver a secondary voltageof EXCHANGING EXPERTISE SINCE 1893NWEMSTRANSFORMER LOSSES»The transformer is not 100% efficient due to two types ofenergy losses.»No load losses are associated with magnetizing the iron core.»Load losses are associated with current flow.EXCHANGING EXPERTISE SINCE 18938
