Control transformers, also known as industrial control transformers or machine tool transformers, play a significant role across industries, providing reliable and efficient power management for control circuits. Whether you are a professional in the electrical engineering field or simply interested in understanding the working of control transformers, this guide is here to help. From an…
Transformers have a coil of insulated wires which work as current-carrying conductors around the core. These coils are one of the key parts in a transformer and are mostly made of either aluminum or copper. Both aluminum and copper are conductive metals and have their own pros and cons with regards to their use in…
Step down voltage transformers are devices that reduce the voltage of an alternating current. They are widely used for adjusting AC voltage from an outlet to a more convenient level for the proper functioning of home appliances like washing machines/refrigerators, and other commercial/industrial equipment and systems. These transformers are electrically connected coils, or windings –…
A transformer is a passive device used in energy distribution and transmission, wherein the energy flows from one circuit to the other one or multiple circuits. A transformer, as initially discovered by Michael Faraday a couple of centuries ago, works on the principle of electromagnetic induction. There are various types of transformers such as step-up,…
A transformer is a passive device used to transfer power from one circuit to another and to step up or step down the voltage as required. It can also be used to transfer power to multiple circuits. Transformers are of various types and can be distinguished based on the winding pattern, voltage range, and core…
The transformers and inductors are two important devices used in the electronics. There exists a misconception that these are the same because they look similar in construction and appearance. However, one differs from the other in several matters including applications, design and construction elements, among others. This post aims to familiarize you with some of…
Inverters are electrical devices that are used to convert direct current (DC) to an alternating current (AC).In the previous post we discussed the designing of an inverter circuit. In this post, we will focus on the working principle of an inverter. How Does an Inverter Work? We will divide this answer in parts for a better…
An inverter is used to convert direct current (DC) to alternating current (AC). By using different transformers, or switching circuits, you can get the desired value of voltage and frequency. This post will explain the designing of an inverter. DESIGNING OF AN INVERTER To understand the designing process of an inverter, we will go step…
An electric power transformer features primary, secondary, and sometimes tertiary windings. The flux linkage between these windings drives the transformer. For effective flux linkage, one low reluctance magnetic path is provided in the transformer. This path is known it typically in the core. Generally, the core is made from different materials like silicone steel, ferrites,…
The electrical power transformer features primary, secondary, and tertiary windings. The transformer is driven by the flux between the windings. Magnetic cores are used in transformers, which serve as the pathway of the flux. The core can be made from various materials, this post discusses some of them. Materials Used for Building Magnetic Cores in…
