Abstract
The universally used core material for mains frequency transformers and inductors is silicon-iron. This is available in various grades with different silicon content and electrical properties and the grades are known by various trade names Table 1 gives a cross-reference guide to typical properties and trade names. Some of these names are now obsolete but are included for reference.
