What is the difference between ideal transformer and practical transformer?

There are basically 4 major differences :- 1. The windings (both primary and secondary) of an ideal transformer are considered to have zero resistance, hence the transformer is lossless. 2. There is no leakage flux in an ideal transformer. 3. The permiability of the core material in ideal transformer is considered to be tending to infinity and hence the current needed to set up the flux in the transformer is negligible. 4. There is zero hysterisis and eddy current losses in an ideal transformer.


Why do you represent leakage flux in a transformer by inductive reactance?

A transformer is often represented by an equivalent circuit, in which the transformer itself is considered to be 'ideal', and its basic losses are then represented as resistance and reactance in series with both the primary and secondary windings for a loaded transformer, or just on the primary side for a transformer on open circuit.The transformer's primary flux comprises two components: the main flux, which links the primary and secondary windings, and a leakage flux which links just the primary winding. The leakage flux is considered arising from a self inductance in series with an 'ideal' primary winding. The reactance of this inductance is termed the primary leakage reactance. The voltage drop across this reactance will lead the primary no-load current by 90 degrees which, when added to the voltage drop across the resistance of the primary winding, acts to reduce the back emf of the primary winding below the value of the applied voltage and cause it to lag.A similar explanation accounts for the an inductance and resistance in series with the secondary winding, when the transformer is loaded.


What is difference between Hipot and IR test?

With Hipod leakage current of any circuit (HT Distribution/ Transmission Lines) can be determine and with IR Test insulation resistance between two circuit or parts of machine is determined.


What is the source of leakage current in a transistor?

The current of the minority charges (collector region) is the source of the leakage current. At higher temperature, this leakage current increases due to increase in thermal energy.

What is leakage resistance in RC circuit?

Leakage resistance in any circuit is resistance less than infinity where it is not expected, such as across an insulator. In the ideal sense, all circuits have leakage resistance because no insulator is perfect, but we usually ignore this except in special situations because it does not normally matter in real applications. In an RC circuit, leakage resistance would most typically be across the capacitor.

Why not use an ohm meter to measure the leakage in wire insulation?

An ohm meter measures resistance in a circuit, not leakage in wire insulation. To measure insulation resistance or leakage in wire insulation, you would typically use a megohmmeter or insulation resistance tester, which applies a higher voltage than an ohm meter to test the integrity of the insulation.

Do capacitors have internal resistance?

1. The capacitor has Lead resistance in series with the capacitor2. Since most capacitor use Dielectric and they have a leakage resistance and it is parallel to the Ideal Capacitor.


How calculate the leakage of the capacitor?

leakage current can be determine through the use of clampmeter or ohm-meter. leakage current can be determine through the use of clampmeter or ohm-meter. You can use Ohm's law (E=IR) to get this answer. Disconnect power to the circuit, and measure the leakage path's resistance (This is usually the rated resistance of the insulating material...you will need a M-ohmmeter to measure insulation resistance, as it will be MUCH higher than a standard ohmmeter can measure). Then rework the formula to solve for current: I=E/R or simply: divide voltage by resistance. You can also use an inductive current clamp as mentioned above. This clamp measures electrical current by measuring the electromagnetic field strength of the current flowing through the wire.

How capacitor works practically?

infact what happens in practical capacitor action that air in between parallel plates of that capacitor it acts as a dielectric medium and leakage current starts flowing, that leakage curent is then being bypassed through a conductance in parallel with the capacitor.But in the ideal case that leakage current can't flow due to infinite resistance which can not be provided practically.


Does Insulators offer resistance to the flow of electric current?

Yes, insulators offer resistance to the flow of electric current. Insulators are materials with high resistance, which restricts the flow of electrons through them. This property makes insulators useful for preventing electrical leakage and ensuring the safe transmission of electricity.
