What does the terminology - radial feed - mean in relationship to transformers?
This terminology usually refers to pad mounted transformers. A "radial feed " transformer is a transformer that has one bushing for the high voltage cable line. The high voltage cable terminates into the transformer through the transformer's bushing. There is no second bushing for the high voltage cable to continue further down the line. This type of transformer is usually on the end of a loop feed circuit. This is different from a "loop feed" transformer whose incoming cables are terminated at the primary bushings. On this type of transformer there is a second bushing which connects to the outgoing primary voltage cables that allows the primary to feed another transformer. Each pad mount transformer's secondary feed usually supplies enough power to connect up to four homes.
What is exciting current in transformer?
Excitation current is the current necessary to "turn on" the transformer so it can be used. It's energy that is lost in the use of the transformer. Most of this loss I believe is associated with the hysterisis loop, although some will be lost as eddy currents.
What are the essential parts of a transformer?
A magnetic core made of iron laminations, forming a closed loop, and two or more coils of copper wire wound to intersect the core.
Can you use 20 kva transformer in a home?
Yes you could use a 20 kva transformer in a home. Stymied as to why it would be done though. You would need at least a 100 amp service to the home to energize the transformer. Primary side of the transformer would draw 83 amps at 240 volts. If the question was to supply the home, again yes. It would be 100 amp service equipment that the transformer would feed into.
Can you use ordinary transformer in place of auto transformer?
yes we can place auto transformer in place of original transformer

What is the difference between finite open loop gain and closed loop gain?
In a closed loop system the gain without the feed back loop being closed is called open loop gain!!! e.g if forward gain is "A" and feed back factor is "B" then open loop gain is "AB" and closed loop gain will be [A/(A+B)]

What can a transformer not do?
Wash the car, feed the cat, turn lead in to gold... the list goes on and on.
Can a 1500KVA transformer feed a 1600A 480V service?
No, a 1500KVA transformer is not large enough to handle a 1600A load at 480V. The transformer should have a higher kVA rating to support the current demand of 1600A. A transformer with a minimum capacity of 1920KVA would be needed for this application.
How do you make a bowline on a bite?
1. Fold your rope in half. 2. Make a loop in one side of the rope. 3. Feed the other end through the loop. 4. Pull the pulled through loop over the top and behind the large loop. 5. Pull tight.
How do you select core in Transformer Design?
The material used in the manufacture of transformer cores must have a hysteresis loop with a very small area, as it is the area of the hysteresis loop that determines the hysteresis losses of the core material. The core material should also be resistive, in order to reduce eddy current losses (which is further improved by laminating the core). Many transformer manufacturers use their own variations on what is basically a silicon-steel.A hysteresis curve, or loop, is a graph of flux density plotted against magnetising force, and basically describes the ease (or difficulty) with which the core material can be magnetised and demagnetised as the magnetising current changes magnitude and direction.
What is a signal pulse transformer?
usually a small transformer ferrite rather than iron core for short pulses it is more for isolation than anything else trigger for scr or triac the previous question for a power pulse transformer these are in cars ignition transformers the newer cars generally have one on each cylinder the computer may feed may feed a signal pulse through the small transformer to isolate the computer from the big one. to an scr to discharge a capacitor thru the ignition transformer (cars use the terms condenser and coil)
