  2. Current transformer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Current_transformer

    The burden (load) impedance should not exceed the specified maximum value to avoid the secondary voltage exceeding the limits for the current transformer. The primary current rating of a current transformer should not be exceeded, or the core may enter its non-linear region and ultimately saturate. This would occur near the end of the first ...

    IEC 60852 Outline dimensions of transformers and inductors for use in telecommunication and electronic equipment; IEC 60853 Calculation of the cyclic and emergency current rating of cables; IEC TR 60854 Methods of measuring the performance of ultrasonic pulse-echo diagnostic equipment

  4. Per-unit system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Per-unit_system

    The ratio of the voltage bases on either side of a transformer is selected to be the same as the ratio of the transformer voltage ratings. With these two rules, a per-unit impedance remains unchanged when referred from one side of a transformer to the other. This allows the ideal transformer to be eliminated from a transformer model.

  5. Power rating - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_rating

    For every hour of operation at the service-factor-adjusted power rating, a motor loses two to three hours of life at nominal power, i.e. its service life is reduced to less than half for continued operation at this level. [4] [10] The service factor is defined in the ANSI/NEMA MG 1 standard, [11] and is generally used in the United States. [12]

  8. Power factor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_factor

    Alternatively, all components of the system such as generators, conductors, transformers, and switchgear would be increased in size (and cost) to carry the extra current. When the power factor is close to unity, for the same kVA rating of the transformer more load current can be supplied. [28]

  9. Transformer types - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transformer_types

    A current transformer (CT) is a series connected measurement device designed to provide a current in its secondary coil proportional to the current flowing in its primary. Current transformers are commonly used in metering and protective relays in the electrical power industry.
