What is the use of a transformer with turns ratio 1?
isolation if you are in the usa and must service electronics the neutral is grounded the power supply is a voltage doubler one side is 170v+ to ground the other is 170v negative to ground so if you run the power thru the transformer first you stand a better chance of staying alive these transformers are quite often used to trigger scrs or triacs for the same reason
What is Miller's Theorem?
Milller's Theorem is used to simplify a circuit for circuit analysis. Instead of one impedance, which connectes two non-grounded nodes, Miller's Theorem allows this impedance to be broken down into two parallel impedances. One impedance can be seen as Z/(1-A) and the other impedance can be simplified to Z/(1-(1/A)). In this case, Z was the value of the original impedance, and A is the gain of the amplifier being analyzed.
What is a cathode follower?
A vacuum-tube circuit in which the input signal is applied between the control grid and ground, and the load is connected between the cathode and ground. Also known as grounded-anode amplifier; grounded-plate amplifier. It has a VERY high input impedance, and a low output impedance. Both properties have useful applications.Its equivalent in solid state is the emitter follower.
Voltage across Neutral and earth for a 3 phase auto transformer?
A grounded neutral will be at earth potential. A floating neutral will be at a voltage dependent upon the voltage imbalance between phases, and the design of the transformer.
What is the relationship of primary windings of a transformer to the secondary windings regarding output and input voltage?
The phase relationship between the primary voltage and the secondary voltage of a transformer is 180 degrees (typically) on single phase transformers. If working with three phase transformers, a zero phase shift is often used in Y/Y grounded transformers. If the transformer is wired Delta / Wye, the phase shift will be 30 degrees. I've seen transformers with a phase shift of 150 as well (quite abnormal, but it exists!) due to the starring and a delta / wye configuration. If you are looking at a transformer phasor diagram, this will show the phase shift between primary or secondary (three phase transformers). For single phase, there should be a drawing showing polarity markings - what goes in the polarity marking on the primary comes out on the secondary polarity marking.
What is the effect when two dry type transformer with different voltage rating tap to a common grounding?
There is no effect. The common grounding is just what it states. Common potential of zero is the result when transformers are grounded. There is no current feeding between the transformers because their "hot" ends of the coils are isolated from one another.
How transformer conduct current through ground?
A transformer doesn't 'conduct current through the ground'. However, in the event of a ground fault in the circuit supplied by a grounded transformer, the resulting fault current will flow through the earth back to the grounded terminal of that transformer's secondary winding.
What is the wiring suppose to look like on the transformer?
Incoming wires connect to terminals H1, H4. Output wires connect to X1, X4. On small control transformers the X4 terminal should be grounded to the cabinet and not left floating.

Why would you get 65volt on 120volt output on a 480volt to 120volt transformer?
Your neutral May not be grounded good
Why are center tapped transformers used in North America?
Center tapped transformers are used in North America to be able to use two voltages from the transformers secondary. It is known as a three wire system. Appliances circuits that utilize 240 volts and appliances that use 120 volts can be supplied from one transformer. The transformers secondary is center tapped and grounded. This allows the 240 volt winding L1 - L2 to produce 120 volts from one leg of the winding to ground L1 - N and the second half of the winding 120 volts from N - L2. <<>> Center tapped transformers are used anywhere world wide where ever they were designed to be used. There is nothing particular to a center tapped transformer that makes it more or less suitable for use in North America.

Isolating transformer theory?
Transformers use magnetic induction between 2 coils of wire to produce a voltage in the secondary winding. Typically the main purpose of a transformer is to step up or down the voltage by having differing number of windings between the primary and secondary coils. A secondary effect is to keep the 2 systems electrically isolated from eachother. If one of the phases becomes grounded, the ground is only seen on the portion of the system downstream of the transformer, thus increasing relibability.
What is a cathode follower?
A vacuum-tube circuit in which the input signal is applied between the control grid and ground, and the load is connected between the cathode and ground. Also known as grounded-anode amplifier; grounded-plate amplifier. It has a VERY high input impedance, and a low output impedance. Both properties have useful applications.Its equivalent in solid state is the emitter follower.
Do isolation transformers stop spikes from getting in and out?
That depends on what kind of spike: AC spikes are allowed through while DC spikes (within limits) are blocked. DC Spikes that go over the capacitance rating of the transformer coils will pass through. CAUTION: Isolation transformers are dangerous, and you should know what you are doing before messing with them: most provide lethal voltage potential in an otherwise safely grounded enviroment.
Why neutral point is grounded in transformers?
To limit the short circuit of current and allow the heavy current to drain through NGR
What is the xo connection in a transformer for?
The X terminal identification on a transformer designates the secondary side of the transformer. Depending on the type of secondary windings, the terminals can be designated as X1, X2, X3 and X4. On a single winding secondary the terminals will be X1 and X2. The "hot" wire will be supplied from the X1 terminal and the return wire will use the X2 terminal. On most control transformers the X2 terminal should be grounded to the control panel's chassis.
