Abstract :
The chaotic response of a ferroresonant 275-kV electromagnetic voltage transformer circuit is quantified using fractal mathematics and geometry. Three fractal dimensions methods, capacity dimension, information dimension, and correlation dimension, were used to confirm the existence of chaotic ferroresonance, with all three methods giving noninteger dimension values
