How Losses Affect Your Transformers’ Performance

Posted by Bill Dull | February 27, 2024 | 0 Comments

Transformers experience losses due to the electrical current flowing through the coils and the alternating magnetic field in the core. The losses associated with the coils are known as conduction losses, while the losses arising in the core are referred to as core losses. Conduction losses occur due to the resistance of the coil wire, causing some of the electrical energy to convert into heat [...]
