For notation purposes, we will consider in the primary side the current to enter into the dotted
winding terminal, while at the secondary the current will leave the dotted winding terminal

To reflect the currents from the secondary of the transformer to the primary side, the
DC components from the secondary side have to be taken away ¡¡ (as it can be seen
in the following study case)
