Types Of Electrical Losses In A Transformer
A transformer is an efficient, effective and economical solution that plays a vital role in transmitting power throughout the industry with electromagnetic induction that doesn't affect the frequency level. An ideal design of this static device is the one that supplies the same amount of power at the input as well as an output terminal with zero energy losses. However, it is not possible to attain this 100% efficiency because of the losses in the cores and windings, which sometimes affects the working and creates some issues. As it is a static device, so, you will never experience any mechanical loss in it, but there are a number of electrical losses that occur and you should know about them to avoid any catastrophe. So, let's take a look and come to about them. Copper Losses: It basically occurs in the windings of the transformers that are wound around the laminated core. And the reason behind such loss is the overheating due to the current passing and internal resistance of
