Transformers are practically not going to be fully balanced so care needs to be taken on how they are loaded.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" id=\"oembed-2\" title=\"How to determine the minimum KVA in a transformer\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/JL_gpL6urkI?feature=oembed&#38;rel=0\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center\"><strong>Video Alert!<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>This video explains how a transformer can still work if one of the primary windings has burned out. This is the concept of flux linkage. The main point to take away is that if you lose a winding then you have only half of the KVA (Power) available.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" id=\"oembed-3\" title=\"Flux linkage\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/P7S7Njwlyes?feature=oembed&#38;rel=0\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<h2>Attribution<\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/luDKIUG-dBc\">How to connect a transformer properly<\/a> video by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/channel\/UCRm79BcxKhOWRj6CQAB_Cqg\">The Electric Academy<\/a> is under a <a href=\"https:\/\/creativecommons.org\/licenses\/by\/4.0\/\">Creative Commons Attribution License<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/JL_gpL6urkI\">How to determine the minimum KVA in a transformer<\/a>\u00a0video by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/channel\/UCRm79BcxKhOWRj6CQAB_Cqg\">The Electric Academy<\/a> is under a <a href=\"https:\/\/creativecommons.org\/licenses\/by\/4.0\/\">Creative Commons Attribution License<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/P7S7Njwlyes\">Flux linkage<\/a> video by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/channel\/UCRm79BcxKhOWRj6CQAB_Cqg\">The Electric Academy<\/a> is under a <a href=\"https:\/\/creativecommons.org\/licenses\/by\/4.0\/\">Creative Commons Attribution License<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":422,"menu_order":5,"template":"","meta":{"pb_show_title":"on","pb_short_title":"","pb_subtitle":"","pb_authors":[],"pb_section_license":""},"chapter-type":[],"contributor":[],"license":[],"class_list":["post-29","chapter","type-chapter","status-publish","hentry"],"part":3,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/pressbooks.bccampus.ca\/singlephasetransformers\/wp-json\/pressbooks\/v2\/chapters\/29","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/pressbooks.bccampus.ca\/singlephasetransformers\/wp-json\/pressbooks\/v2\/chapters"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/pressbooks.bccampus.ca\/singlephasetransformers\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/chapter"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pressbooks.bccampus.ca\/singlephasetransformers\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/422"}],"version-history":[{"count":18,"href":"https:\/\/pressbooks.bccampus.ca\/singlephasetransformers\/wp-json\/pressbooks\/v2\/chapters\/29\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":245,"href":"https:\/\/pressbooks.bccampus.ca\/singlephasetransformers\/wp-json\/pressbooks\/v2\/chapters\/29\/revisions\/245"}],"part":[{"href":"https:\/\/pressbooks.bccampus.ca\/singlephasetransformers\/wp-json\/pressbooks\/v2\/parts\/3"}],"metadata":[{"href":"https:\/\/pressbooks.bccampus.ca\/singlephasetransformers\/wp-json\/pressbooks\/v2\/chapters\/29\/metadata\/"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/pressbooks.bccampus.ca\/singlephasetransformers\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=29"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"chapter-type","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pressbooks.bccampus.ca\/singlephasetransformers\/wp-json\/pressbooks\/v2\/chapter-type?post=29"},{"taxonomy":"contributor","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pressbooks.bccampus.ca\/singlephasetransformers\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/contributor?post=29"},{"taxonomy":"license","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pressbooks.bccampus.ca\/singlephasetransformers\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/license?post=29"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
