Efficiency is influenced by core material quality, winding design, insulation effectiveness, and cooling system performance. High-grade core materials reduce hysteresis and eddy current losses. Optimized winding configurations minimize electrical resistance and leakage inductance. Effective insulation prevents energy losses through electrical leakage. Efficient cooling systems maintain optimal operating temperatures, reducing thermal losses. Load conditions also affect efficiency; transformers operate most efficiently near their designed load capacity. Regular maintenance ensures components function optimally, sustaining efficiency over time.
