Question

Which of the following cores are used for construction of large power transformers?

A.

Cold rolled grain oriented steel

B.

Hot rolled steel

C.

Ferrite

D.

Cold rolled non-grain oriented steel

Correct option is A

The cores of large power transformers are made from cold-rolled grain oriented (CRGO) steel. CRGO steel is a soft magnetic material with many desirable properties, including: 
· High permeability: CRGO steel has high magnetic permeability. 
· Low hysteresis loss: CRGO steel has low hysteresis loss. 
· High resistance: CRGO steel has high resistance. 
· Reduced magnetostriction: CRGO steel has reduced magnetostriction. 
· High stacking or laminating factor: CRGO steel has a high stacking or laminating factor. 
· Low losses: CRGO steel has low losses. 
· Increased corrosion resistance: CRGO steel increases corrosion resistance.
