what is isolation Transformer?

Answer Posted / v.sudhakar reddy

is a transformer, often with symmetrical windings, which is
used to decouple two circuits. An isolation transformer
allows an AC signal or power to be taken from one device
and fed into another without electrically connecting the
two circuits. Isolation transformers block transmission of
DC signals from one circuit to the other, but allow AC
signals to pass. They also block interference caused by
ground loops. Isolation transformers with electrostatic
shields are used for power supplies for sensitive equipment
such as computers or laboratory instruments.

i have a 4 Mva transformer 34.5 kv / 480-277 v and i used 2 parallel 3200 amp bus duct for the secondary feeder using 3 ply of bus bar ( 3/8" x 5" ) as a common where the flexible link terminated and 6300 amps breaker for the main, the lower bus duct reaches 70 degrees and the upper bus duct reaches 55 degrees when i used thermal scanner. why the temperature is not balance when the load reaches 3600 amps.
