What mean by va in current transformer?

Its simply multiplication of voltage applied and current.


What is meant by rated voltage rated current and rated power of a transformer?

The ratings state the limits on voltage and current for operating the transformer at full load. The rated voltage times the rated current gives the rated VA of the transformer. Transormers are not usually rated directly for power because this depends on the power factor of the load applied.


What is the difference between a transformer and a rectifer?

A transformer is used to change the value of a voltage applied to the transformer's primary winding to a different voltage value taken from the transformers secondary winding. A rectifier is used to change an alternating current value to a direct current value.


Given a Transformer with 110vac at 1 amp applied to the primary with 1000 turns and the secondary of 500 turns what is the voltage current and power of the secondary?

Why LV side is shorted in short circuit test?

Transformer short circuit tests are used to determine the impedances (positive and zero sequence) of the transformer. A simple explanation: to do this one winding is shorted, and voltage is applied to another winding to circulate the normal full load current of the transformer. The impedance of the transformer is the applied voltage divided by the induced current. If one winding was not shorted, the voltage divided by induced current would not give the impedance of the transformer - the induced current would be much lower, giving a much higher impedance measurement that would be essentially meaningless.


What is the angle between no load current and the applied voltage in an ideal transformer?

A: Transformer by itself goes not alter the phases the output can be in phase or out of phase depending how you look at it.


Can a constant dc current can induce a steady state voltage in a transformer?

No, the current has to change for a voltage to be induced in the transformer.


A transformer can only the voltage of an alternating current?

A transformer can only increase or decrease the voltage of an alternating current, and it is called step-up transformer or step-down transformer accordingly.


The incoming voltage from the current source to the transformer is called what?

The incoming voltage from the source to the transformer is called primary voltage.


What happens to the current as the voltage is increased by the step up transformer?

Compare a transformer to a balancing act. Both side need to remain equal.The primary side of the transformer is the supply side and the load is connected to the secondary side of the transformer.The load governs the current of the secondary side of the transformer and the voltage of the secondary side must match the voltage that the load required to operate.The ratio of the transformer will determine what the voltage of the secondary side is as compared to the voltage that has to be applied to the primary.The current of a step up transformer will be higher on the primary side that that of the secondary.Apply voltage and current to this concept and you will see that the transformer will remain balanced.The size of the transformer is always calculated from the secondary side of the transformer and the value is written in VA or KVA where V = voltage and A = amperage. Power factor is also taken into consideration when calculating the size of the transformer to be used.


When a larger voltage is applied to a conductor does the current increase or decrease?

If you increase the voltage applied to a conductor, the current increases.That is, unless you are talking about stepping up the voltage with a transformer with the intent of distributing it over a long distance to a remote transformer, at which point you would step it back down. In this case, the current would decrease. The above answer to the original question remains valid, however, due to lack of information.


What is the purpose of constant voltage transformer?

The term 'constant voltage transformer' is used to differentiate the operation of transformers that are intended to change voltage levels, from those intended to change current levels -a current transformer (CT), for example, is termed a 'constant current transformer'.
