Introduction to transformers by Orlando Giraldo is a transformers course based on 47 years of experience in transformers design, production, tests, protection, manufacturing machines, components marketing, and factory management.

We are happy to announce that the following two lessons will be held live in November. These are the Equivalent circuit of a transformer and Operating characteristics of transformers. You can save your seats for each of those two individually.

Lesson #4 will be held live on Wednesday, 2 November 2022, 5:00 PM CET and you can learn the about the following:

• Ideal transformer model
• Polarity marks
• Basic equations of a transformer
• Phasor representation of the equivalent circuit
• Determination of the parameters of the equivalent circuit
• Load loss test. Examples.
• No Load loss test. Examples.
• Winding resistance measurements. Examples per IEEE Std.

Lesson #5 will be held live on Thursday, 17 November 2022, 5:00 PM CET  and you can learn the about the following:

• Short circuit tension and current (symmetrical and asymmetrical)
• Thermal and dynamic effects of short circuit currents
• Inrush current
• Voltage regulation
• Transformer efficiency
• Per unit system

Both of these lessons are hosted on advanced levels of this course. To opt for the most appropriate level, which will serve your needs best, see the subscription page here.
