Electrical Transformer

It works on the principle of electromagnetic induction and can step up or step down the voltage level of an alternating current (AC) supply.

A power transformer is defined as a transformer that operates with high voltages and currents in the power system network. It is mainly used to increase or decrease the voltage level between the generator and the distribution circuits.

• Step-up and step-down transformers
• Single-phase and three-phase transformers
• Two-winding and autotransformers
• Distribution and power transformers

Power transformers are essential for the transmission, distribution, and utilization of electrical power in various sectors.

A power transformer has two or more windings that are magnetically coupled through a core. A varying current in one winding creates a varying magnetic flux in the core, which induces a varying voltage in the other windings.
