Question { Bhel, 8184 }
what happen when dc supply is given to the transformer
Answer
If DC voltage is applied to the primary of a transformer the
flux produced in the transformer core, will not vary but
remain constant in magnitude therefore no emf will be
induced in the secondary winding except at the time of
switching on.Also there will be no self induced emf in the
primary winding to oppose the applied voltage and since the
resistance of the primary winding is quite low heavy current
will flow through it which may result in burning out of
primary winding
