magnetizing current [′mag·nə‚tiz·iŋ ‚kə·rənt]

(electricity)

The current that flows through the primary winding of a power transformer when no loads are connected to the secondary winding; this current establishes the magnetic field in the core and furnishes energy for the no-load power losses in the core. Also known as exciting current.
