Data record `tests.transformer-excitation-current.ieeec57-12-90.factory-basis`

Verified 2026-10-24 Confidence: Medium

In IEEE C57.12.90-2021 excitation current is a factory quantity measured at rated voltage on a sine-wave basis during the no-load loss test of clause 8, with the test voltage set by the average-voltage voltmeter method of clause 8.2; the code gives no field procedure for excitation current.
