why dc power can not be used in transformer?

Answer Posted / deepa james

*When an alternating voltage is given to the primary winding, current flows in it.
*Flow of current causes changing magnetic field in the core.
*Most of which is linked with the secondary winding where an emf is produced due to the change in magnetic field.
*DC voltage is constant in magnitude and if given to the primary winding, there wont be any change in magnetic field. Instead magnetic field stays the same.
*EMF is induced in the secondary only if the magnetic field is changing.
*Thus if DC voltage given to primary, there will be no emf induced in secondary.

In both 600/1000 V cable and 450/750 V cable, we can supply 415 V. However for distribution, all utilities are using only 600/100 V instead of 450/750 V. What is the reason?
