Pressure on power infrastructure in the U.S. is intensifying, and there's a supply shortage for power and distribution ...

For a variety of applications, using current transformers is an efficient way to sense current with minimum insertion loss.

Current sense transformers (CST) are used for controlling and protecting circuits as well as detecting loads in power supplies. Epcos has developed two new CST series that are particularly suited for ...

The first phase of construction has begun on the Meyer Substation in Dansville. The construction comes after a report said ...

High Current Planar Transformer High Performance and Low Cost The demand for low profile, high efficiency, and high current output DC-DC converters is driving the need for high performance planar ...

A home-brew current transformer made from a split ferrite core and some magnet wire is the sensor, and a couple of op-amps and a 555 timer make up the detection and alarm part.

Test Set Performs Current Transformer Saturation Test The EZCT-S2 from Vanguard Instruments is a second-generation, microprocessor-based, current transformer set.

Understand inrush current and its impact on power electronics design. Learn to manage surges that can exceed normal levels.

— A New System of Alternate Current — Motors and Transformers Read before the American Institute of Electrical Engineers, May 16, 1888.

When a transformer is re-energized, an inrush current occurs that can greatly exceed the nominal current. If the transformer core still contains residual magnetism, the first peak current can even ...
