Default I built a 7.5VAC 21Amp transformer now it has lots of buzz


Yep, It's all about core saturation. A large utility
transformer can be saturated by just a few amperes
of DC. Which is one reason improvements in load current
THD are important. Zero sequence currents and all
that jazz.

lamination so no two in a row go the same way.

I meant for transformers that carry ONLY AC! oops!
