why cu losses called cu losses.

Answer Posted / naveen

Copper loss is the term often given to heat produced by
electrical currents in the conductors of transformer
windings, or other electrical devices.Since most of the
windings we see in practical application are of
copper,copper losses or winding losses are called copper losses.
