Abstract

Methods and arrangements for computing disruptive current in a transformer. Transformer current is measured, and disruptive current is predicted. Based on the active transformer current and predicted disruptive current, a predicted reactive power and predicted neutral current are determined. At least one corrective action, to be taken with respect to the transformer, is thereupon identified. Other variants and embodiments are broadly contemplated herein.
