b) Without an external magnetic field, the hysteresis curve is
symmetrical and the probe loop generates 50% duty cycle.

c) An external magnetic flux (H) generated from the primary current
(IPRIM) shifts the hysteresis curve of the magnetic field probe in the
H-axis and the probe loop generates a nonsymmetrical duty cycle.
