what is corona

Answer Posted / sonali

corona discharge is a phenomenon which occurs due to the electric breakdown of air particles when the surrounding air between the gap of conductors gets charged in case of high voltages transmissions ,it can also be observed in transformers and is visible with a bluish flame and it actually results in energy loss in the form of heat and light.
