One of the most dangerous locations in a power distribution system with regard to incident energy is that first panelboard on the secondary of a transformer. With some thought in your design — even if ...

In power distribution systems, three-phase transformer configuration directly impacts system reliability and load management.

THE POWER SOURCES MANUFACTURERS ASSOCIATION (PSMA) is celebrating its twentieth anniversary by offering hardcopy reprints of a classic text on transformer design for less than a student would have ...

For the PDF version of this article, click here. The size, performance and cost of a power electronic system are closely linked to the like parameters of the magnetic components. Since custom power ...

Cobham Technical Services claims that the development of new generations of transformers and line reactors is radically simplified and accelerated by a new automated software toolbox from its Vector ...

Custom-designed transformers can help hit space, weight, and cooling budgets. Custom-designed transformers got a bad reputation a decade or two ago. One of the knocks against them was a lack of ...

Here are the steps required to select the transformer and how to design the circuit needed to meet the end use in a manner that prevents transformer saturation Average current-mode control (CMC) ...

Power-transformer designs minimize weight and cost based on three assumptions: (1) the power source is a sine wave, (2) the frequency is fixed, and (3) the voltage will not exceed a specified maximum.
