step-down transformers decrease the voltage. The transformer in the diagram above is a step-down transformer – there are fewer turns on the secondary coil than on the primary coil. Type of transformer ...

These days, homeowners are clamoring for pendants that hang from the ceiling, moody undercabinet lighting, recessed lighting and outdoor path lights that illuminate the edge of the front walk. Of ...

Every time you charge your phone, turn on a light, or use an appliance, there’s a silent giant working behind the scenes: the transformer. In this video, you’ll discover how transformers quietly ...

Current transformers can perform circuit control, measure current for power measurement and control, and perform roles for safety protection and current limiting. They can also cause circuit events to ...

Power-transformer designs minimize weight and cost based on three assumptions: (1) the power source is a sine wave, (2) the frequency is fixed, and (3) the voltage will not exceed a specified maximum.
