प्रश्न
Mention two main sources of power loss in real transformers.
Advertisements
उत्तर
Two causes of energy loss in a transformer are:
- Heat loss due to copper: It is the loss of heat energy over the resistance of the copper winding in the primary and secondary coils.
- Hysteresis loss: The loss caused by the heating of the core as a result of its repetitive magnetization and demagnetization cycles when an alternating emf is applied across the primary coil.

Long distance power transmissions
The large-scale transmission and distribution of electrical energy over long distances is done with the use of transformers. The voltage output of the generator is stepped up. It is then transmitted over long distances to an area sub-station near the consumers. There the voltage is stepped down. It is further stepped down at distributing sub-stations and utility poles before a power supply of 240 V reaches our homes.
If the secondary coil has a greater number of turns than the primary, ______.
