  2. Polarity (mutual inductance) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polarity_(mutual_inductance)

    Pole mounted distribution transformers are manufactured with additive polarity, while instrument transformers are made with subtractive polarity. Where markings have been obscured or are suspect, a test can be made by interconnecting the windings and exciting the transformer, and measuring the voltages. [4]

  3. Transformer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transformer

    In electrical engineering, a transformer is a passive component that transfers electrical energy from one electrical circuit to another circuit, or multiple circuits.A varying current in any coil of the transformer produces a varying magnetic flux in the transformer's core, which induces a varying electromotive force (EMF) across any other coils wound around the same core.

  4. Short-circuit test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Short-circuit_test

    The ammeter reading gives the primary equivalent of full load current I L. As the voltage applied for full load current in short circuit test on transformer is quite small compared to the rated primary voltage of the transformer, the iron losses in the transformer can be taken as negligible here.

  5. Current transformer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Current_transformer

    A high-voltage current transformer may contain several cores, each with a secondary winding, for different purposes (such as metering circuits, control, or protection). [7] A neutral current transformer is used as earth fault protection to measure any fault current flowing through the neutral line from the wye neutral point of a transformer.

  6. Faraday's law of induction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Faraday's_law_of_induction

    The magnetic Lorentz force v × B drives a current along the conducting radius to the conducting rim, and from there the circuit completes through the lower brush and the axle supporting the disc. This device generates an emf and a current, although the shape of the "circuit" is constant and thus the flux through the circuit does not change ...

  7. Rogowski coil - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rogowski_coil

    Traditional split-core current transformers do not require integrator circuits. The integrator is lossy, so the Rogowski coil does not have a response down to DC; neither does a conventional current transformer (see Néel effect coils for DC). However, they can measure very slow changing currents with frequency components down to 1 Hz and less.

  8. Counter-electromotive force - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Counter-electromotive_force

    For example, the voltage appearing across an inductor or coil is due to a change in current which causes a change in the magnetic field within the coil, and therefore the self-induced voltage. [1] [2] The polarity of the voltage at every moment opposes that of the change in applied voltage, to keep the current constant. [1] [3]

  9. Voltage transformer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Voltage_transformer

    A 120:120 instrument isolation transformer showing two polarity marking conventions. Voltage transformers (VT), also called potential transformers (PT), are a parallel-connected type of instrument transformer. They are designed to present a negligible load to the supply being measured and have an accurate voltage ratio and phase relationship to ...
