If you exceed the rated voltage of your transformer, there is a high possibility that its insulation will break down and you will ruin that transformer.

What happened if you connect 230V to secondary of transformer whose voltage rating is 230V to 18V?

if you drove the 18V winding with 230V the transformer would burn out, if it didn't catch fire first


How do you reduce a 230v ac transformer to produce 140v ac?

By using step-down transformer


Construct a circuit of 230v to 12v converter other than a transformer?

NO


How is 11kv convert to 230v?

The higher voltage it transformed to a lower voltage by the use of a step down transformer.

Why are you asking someone to do your homework for you? Ask your teacher.


Can you give 230V ac directly to bridge rectifier?

Yes, if the diodes that the bridge rectifier are rated for 230V in forward and reverse voltages. Normally you can do a search for the part number on the internet and get specs there.


Will using a transformer to convert 230V to 12V DC consume more energy than using a few capacitors and resistors without a transformer?

no, the transformer is much more efficient <><><> HOWEVER- a transformer only changes the voltage of AC current- it does not change it to DC. You will still need diodes or rectifiers. You can also use a motor/generator- a 230v AC motor turns a 12 v DC generator.


How do you change 115v to 230v?

You can use a voltage converter or transformer to change 115V to 230V. Make sure to select a converter or transformer that is capable of handling the required voltage conversion and power load. It is always best to consult a professional electrician for safe and proper installation.


What element has cable for a ring mains at 230v or higher?

Copper is commonly used for cables in ring mains operating at voltages of 230V or higher. Copper is a good conductor of electricity, allowing for efficient transmission of power, making it suitable for high-voltage applications.


Will a 240v sewing machine work at 230v?

Yes, electronic products need to work over a range of voltages as the mains is not maintained at exactly 240V or 230V. Typically they have a range of at least 10% and normally much more. So it should work down to at least 216V.


How do you go from 208v to 230v?

You need a step up transformer unfortunately. Buy an Ugly's book electrical reference book. They're great and there is a transformer chart in there that will list the proper size or Kva that you will need according to your amperage need.


What is low voltage transmission?

In the supply industry it refers to circuits of below 1000 volts. Common voltages used are 120v, 208v, 230v, 240v, 277v, 400v, 415v, 480v.
