You have 480 volts coming into a stepdown transformer that is set for 440 volts incoming power would this cause your output voltage to be higher than 120 volts?
In short, probably. Transformers step power up or down by a multiplicative factor based on the number of turns in the two transformer coils. Therefore, if you put more voltage in you're going to get a proportional increase in the voltage out.
What type of transfomer increases the voltage produced by the source?
step- up transformer
What are the advantages of double wound transformer over a auto transformer?
The difference between a double wound step up transformer and an auto transformer is the double wound on the step up transformer and the single wound on the auto transformer.
Is a transformer load inductive or capacitive?
A transformer is fundamentally a set of coils; therefore, a transformer is an inductive load. However, by "transformer load", you seem to mean "the load that is connected to a transformer". Whether that load is inductive or capacitive depends mostly on what is hooked up to the transformer.
What statement correctly describes a step up transformer?
increase the amount of voltage
What does a step up transformer do at a powerplant?
It is used to step up the voltage in order to transmit it a long distance where it goes into a stepdown transformer and then into your home .
What kind of transformer do i use to run LED?
A step-down transformer U really don't need a step up or stepdown transformer You need a source capable to run your LED it can be a swithcing power supply for istance a battery
What are the types of transformers according to construction?
step up and stepdown
Does DC amplifier exist?
Yes, it's called a Transformer. Definitely the wrong answer. DC on a transformer is certainly going to blow it up. The answer is yes unless capacitor coupling is involved
What caused the powder keg to blow up?
A Powder Keg will blow up on its own once the fuse runs out. In addition, using a weapon on it such as a bow or a bomb will cause it to blow up earlier.
What caused space shuttle the challenger to blow up?
A Faulty O-Ring

What if you applied 14400 volts to a 7200 volt transformer?
In simple terms, it’ll basically blow up and ruin the transformer. An easy rule of thumb if you're working with a dual voltage transformer and not sure of the line voltage is to set your transformer on 14.4 before heating up and check voltage. If you’re only getting half voltage on your hot legs, open up the circuit and switch it back to 7200 and heat it back up. It’s okay to send 7200 volts into a 14,400 transformer but not the other way around.
Why did your car blow up after you jumped it?
You might have caused a spark trying to jump off the vehicle
How do you produce a step-up transformer in an ordinary transformer?
Transformer function is either to step-up or down the voltage. There is nothing like an ordinary transformer.
How is possible to increase voltage rate of a transformer?
Yes, first find out how many volts you need on the output. For example, I'll go with 240V for a step up transformer. You would want to put some 10-14 guage wire on the secondary of the transformer, at around 240-250 turns on the transformer. If you can fit thicker wire, then it'll handle more current, but it may blow a fuse once you get such a big transformer.
What is a transformer that increases voltage?
A transformer that increases voltage is a step-up transformer.
