Three-phase step-up transformer connecting low-voltage switchgear to higher-voltage substation equipment

Step Up Transformer: Guide

A step-up transformer raises alternating voltage from the primary side to the secondary side. For approximately the same apparent power, the higher-voltage side carries lower current. Step-up units connect generators…

Power transformer with neutral grounding equipment, surge arresters and protection panels

Complete Guide to Transformer Protection & Safety

A transformer grounding system controls earth-fault current, stabilizes system voltage to earth and bonds exposed conductive parts for safety. It works together with differential, overcurrent, earth-fault, temperature,…

Pole-mounted, pad-mounted, dry-type and oil-immersed electrical transformers

Electrical Transformer: Guide

An electrical transformer transfers alternating-current energy between circuits through electromagnetic induction. It can raise or lower voltage, provide isolation, create a neutral and match equipment to a power…

Engineer using transformer calculator with load schedule and electrical drawings

Transformer Calculator: Calculator and Formula Guide

A transformer calculator converts load power, voltage, phase, power factor, and efficiency into the kVA and current needed for initial selection. The result is a starting point. A reliable specification must also…

Window, bar-primary and ring current transformers beside electrical switchgear

Complete Guide to Transformer Types & Construction

A current transformer (CT) converts a large primary current into a smaller, standardized secondary current that meters and protection relays can safely measure. Its apparent simplicity hides important design choices:…

Partially assembled oil-immersed power transformer showing core, windings, tank and radiators

Complete Guide to Transformer Components & Parts

The transformer core creates a low-reluctance path for alternating magnetic flux, while windings transfer energy between voltage levels. A complete power transformer also needs insulation, tank, oil or air cooling,…
