Abstract :
Due to eddy currents, high temperatures often occur in structural parts adjacent to conductors carrying large currents. This paper deals with this problem and specifically with the minimum safe height and orientation of steel beams in a reinforced concrete ceiling above a three-phase transformer delta closure.
