Transformer's core is made up of which material and why so?

Answer Posted / swapnil

Transformers for use at power or audio frequencies
typically have cores made of high permeability silicon
steel. The steel has a permeability many times that of free
space, and the core thus serves to greatly reduce the
magnetising current .
