What are Instr. Transformers?

Instrument transformers proportionally scale high voltage and current values for safe use with sensitive instruments. Two types exist: potential transformers for voltmeters and current transformers for ammeters and overcurrent relays. They allow installation of instrumentation in control rooms with low voltage wiring. PTs provide low voltage to voltmeters and CTs measure current. They come in […]

What’s a transformer’s load?

A transformer load can refer to the device connected to the transformer output or the amount of voltage in the system. A physical transformer load is a secondary system that regulates power output, preventing peaks and dips in the local system. Transformers work through induction and move energy from one system to another. The load […]
