For example, in Fig. 83, two waves areshown corresponding in magnetization to the last curve ofFig. 80, as the one most distorted. The first curve in Fig. 83is the current wave of a transformer at load. At higherloads the distortion is correspondingly still less, except where themagnetic flux of self-induction, that is, flux passing betweenprimary and secondary and increasing in proportion to the load,is so large as to reach saturation, in which case a distortionappears again and increases with increasing load. The secondcurve of Fig. 83 is the exciting current of
