can we say current flows inside an atom as electron moves inside an atom?..

Answer / pranav

Current is due to valence electrons which are present in the
outermost shell and when they travel in the lattice the move
to valence orbits...but never inside the atom...so current
always flow in lattice but never through atom......

Answer / john

current is flow of free electrons as per definition and not
simply electron movement........... you dont have it as
free electron when that electron is moving(bound) inside the
atom................

Answer / sathyadeep

When ever a charge moves you have a current, so you do have currents within an atom. Thats why we define Magnetic Moment of an atom which is the loop current(current in the orbit)times the loop area.

Answer / richa soni

current flow in atom is depend on the flow of the
charges.... and charge means flow of electron.... if
electron are flowing in the atom current can flow....bcoz we
know(i=q/t; I is proportional to the, q)

there is a power transformer 66/11kV in delta-delta connection has 5 feeder coming out from the secondary side. One of the feeder in it normally loaded (loaded than other feeder)and this feeder usually trips with double OCR causing the bank transformer to trip. Now if the load of this feeder is put on other transformer then that no problems occurs on that transformer or the load. However normally all the test(IR, PI, short ckt, open ckt,grounding test and other ) has been conducted for this but evertything transformer..... I am not geting what is the actual problem...
