Silicon steel has a high electrical resistivity and is manufactured with a carefully controlled grain orientation, which helps to reduce core losses. These losses occur due to the changing magnetic field in the transformer core, and silicon steel’s magnetic properties minimize eddy current and hysteresis losses.Silicon steel exhibits high magnetic permeability, meaning it can easily conduct magnetic flux lines, enhancing the efficiency of the transformer by concentrating the magnetic field within the core. Silicon steel has a high saturation induction, allowing it to handle high magnetic flux density without becoming magnetically saturated. This property enables transformers to handle varying loads efficiently.Silicon steel for transformers is manufactured in thin laminations that are insulated from each other. This lamination process further reduces eddy current losses, as each layer acts as an insulating barrier between adjacent layers.
