BASIC DEFINITIONS :
Transformer is a static device which is used for transferring the electric power from one circuit to another circuit without changes in the frequency and it accomplishes this by electromagnetic induction or mutual inductance.
- The transformer has no rotating part so it is called static device.
- Transformer is a electromagnetic device designed for the transform of alternating current in to another one without changes in the frequency.
- Transformer with two winding's is called double-winding transformer and three or more winding's is termed is called multi-winding one.
- A tapped transformer is one whose winding's fitted with special taps for changing voltage.
step-up transformer:
A transformer raises the voltage level from the input voltage is called step-up transformer.
step-down transformer:
A transformer reduces the voltage level from the input voltage is step-down transformer.
A transformer raises the voltage level from the input voltage is called step-up transformer.
step-down transformer:
A transformer reduces the voltage level from the input voltage is step-down transformer.
