why we use iron corn in transformer instead of wooden core

Answer Posted / muhammad asghar

The purpose of core is to provide low reluctance path for
the magnetic flux linking primary and secondary windings.
So if we can't magnetize core electrically then there is no
use of core in transformer. This is the reason for using
electrical steel in transformer as a CORE material because
we can't magnetize wooden material electrically due to its
high reluctance.

What is the need of earthing transformer for delta side of a transformer. (Think of a line section between a star/delta transformer at a grid substation and delta/star transformer at a village. An earthing transformer is there at the delta side of the star/delta transformer at grid substation). As there are no ground reference there will not be fault current if a one phase is grounded. Further L-L phase will be sensed by the primary side of star/delta transformer as a L-G fault. So why an earthing transformer is required at delta side
