Can you use ordinary transformer in place of auto transformer?
yes we can place auto transformer in place of original transformer
What is the difference between variable transformer and ordinary transformer?
Variable transformer may also refer as auto transformer. We can vary the output voltage of the transformer. But in the ordinary transformers output voltage is already designed.
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.
Why auto transformer is lighter than conventional type?
because the copper is saved in the auto transformer that is the ratio of weights of copper in auto transformer to normal transformer is (1-(1/a)) where a is transformer ratio
What is the application of pluse transformer?
why should we use pulse transformer rather than ordinary transformer
What is the difference between the center tapped transformer and ordinary transformer?
An ordinary transformer has two input/output terminals but a center tapped transformer has 2 input and 3 output terminals. One is taken from the center for a ground connection. This causes it to get 50% of the actual value. And ordinary transformer contains 2 windings. An autotransformer has one.
What is the difference between an ordinary transformer and resonant coupling energy transfer?
What is the difference between an ordinary transformer and resonant coupling energy transfer?
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.
What is the difference between Auto transformer and Power transformer?
An auto transformer has one winding with the output being tapped at some point and therefore has no isolation between primary and secondary. This may make it unsafe or illegal in some applications. A common power transformer has separate windings.
What does auto in autotransformer stands for?
"Auto" refers to the single winding used an auto transformer.
What type of transformer has only a single winding?
the auto transformer is the one winding transformer. it ismaily used in practical purpose.
What is the difference between an ordinary transformer and a center-tapped transformer?
An ordinary transformer has two input/output terminals but a center tapped transformer has 2 input and 3 output terminals. One is taken from the center for a ground connection. This causes it to get 50% of the actual value. And ordinary transformer contains 2 windings. An autotransformer has one.
