Best Answer

A coil of current carrying wire wrapped around an iron core, with at least two taps (one including the entire winding, and one including only part of the winding) is a transformer, or more specifically an auto transformer.

Current can be induced in a conductor by passing said conductor through a magnetic field.

Answer

The word you are looking for is 'induced', not'inducted'. Current is not induced into a conductor; it's voltage that's induced. Current will only result if the conductor forms a closed loop or is connected to some type of load.
