What is the need of ISOLATION Transformer?

Answer Posted / lakshmi

isolation transformer is a 1:1 transformer. its basic
principle is same as that of ordinary transformer. only the
difference is it can`t step up or step down the voltage. it
provides only isolation between primary and secondary.
strikly speaking that isolation transformer provides more
safety for electrically operated equipment like hand
drilling machines, electric shaving kit etc.

How to calculate Grid rotor resistance(GRR) losses in slip ring induction motor?

3637


A 400 V, 50 Hz, Δ connected synchronous generator has a field reactance of 0.1 Ω and armature resistance of 0.015 Ω. At full load, the machine supplies 1200 A at 0.8 pf lagging. Under full-load conditions, the friction and windage losses are 40 KW and the core losses are 30 KW. What is the machine’s overall efficiency? Ignore any field circuit losses.
