As an electrical engineer with 5 years of experience, I focus on transformer and circuit breaker reliability in 110/33-11kV and 33/11kV substations. I am a professional electrical engineer with experience in transformer service and maintenance. I understand electrical principles and have expertise troubleshooting, repairing, and maintaining transformers, circuit breakers, and testing them.

Stray Losses in Transformer

Stray losses in a transformer are caused by leakage fluxes (i.e., magnetic flux that is not contained within the core) that induce eddy currents in neighboring metallic parts which include the  Table of ContentsTypes of Transformer LossesCore (Iron) LossCopper (Ohmic) LossDielectric LossStray LossWhat is Stray...
