A power transformer technology developed by Plitron Manufacturing Inc. of Toronto, Ontario, attenuates differential and common-mode noises on the ac mains to the ...

In power distribution systems, three-phase transformer configuration directly impacts system reliability and load management.

When developing TOPSwitch flyback power supplies, transformer design is usually the biggest stumbling block. Flyback transformers are not designed or used like normal transformers. Energy is stored in ...

When designing an offline flyback power supply, integrating the IC with the other components can be overwhelming. Integrating the transformer properly is more than finding the turns-ratio to match ...

The flyback design is a switched-mode power supply (SMPS) that’s been used for 70+ years and still going strong. This supply—also called a power converter—has two distinct operating phases, with power ...

As a senior transformer consulting engineer at Doble Engineering Co., Dom Corsi has had the opportunity to inspect transformer factories around the world. He has witnessed the manufacturing of both ...

Board-mounted, split-bobbin, high-isolation power transformers come in open-frame (PSB Series) and shrouded (PVD Series) configurations. The PSB Series is available in six power ratings from 1.1 to 36 ...

Geo-magnetically induced currents (GIC) have a bad reputation. Download this free white paper and learn the true effect of GIC on power transformers, based on thorough knowledge of power transformer ...

One of the most dangerous locations in a power distribution system with regard to incident energy is that first panelboard on the secondary of a transformer. With some thought in your design — even if ...

To prevent similar situations in the future, Chinese engineers have now developed a 750-megavolt-ampere (MVA) smart DC ...

Though critical to the nation’s power grid, large power transformers are some of the most vulnerable components in the system. Armed with a shared determination for resiliency, government, industry, ...
