What is the function of a silica gel in a electric power transformer?

Transformer tanks are fitted with a 'breather' vent, which allows air to be drawn in, or expelled, as the oil level varies. A silica gel cell is located in the the vent's tubing to ensure that any air drawn into the transformer is dry.

Can a a electric substation in a city use transformers to increase the power output?
No! A transformer changes voltage levels, not power levels. In fact, the output power of a transformer is actually a little lower than its input power, due to the efficiency of a transformer.
Difference between power and furnace transformer?
Power transformer is used step up or down the voltage for the electricity transmission while furnace transformer is used to melt the metals and ores in the electric furnace.
What is the name of a step-up which increases the voltage of electric energy that is generated at a power?
An electrical transformer can step up (or step down) the voltage.
Is a transformer a source of constant electric current?
A; Terminology is not correct a transformer is not really a source but rather a device to transform one source of power to some power that can be used as required minus efficiency of power transfer
What do you call A device that increases or decreases voltage in a power line is a?
A transformer can perform this function.
Is a transformer one source of constant electric current?
A; Terminology is not correct a transformer is not really a source but rather a device to transform one source of power to some power that can be used as required minus efficiency of power transfer
What we use of automatic Electric transformer use in power transmission?
"Electric" transformers are used in the electric power system for many things. I wonder if you mean "auto" transformer. Transformers are used to step up/down voltage and currents, to provide a ground reference, to inject signals onto power lines, to sample high voltages and currents, etc.
What happen to the heating element if lower power supplied to an electric kettle via transformer?
it won't get as hot
What is the function of an electric motor in terms of electric power and motor?
The electric motor changes electric energy into mechanical energy.
Function of AC motor?
To convert ac electric power into mechanical power.
What is a function of a Buchholz relay?
A Buchholz relay is designed to detect a failing oil-filled power transformer. It will automatically disconnect the transformer and produce an alarm signal.
Can an electric transformer send too much electricity to the meter causing a high electric bill?
An electric transformer does not send electricity to the meter it supplies a source of power that is requested by the demand of the load. The meter is a device which totals the amount of power that you use. This is the amount that you are billed for. If your electrical bill is high only you can reduce it by decreasing the load demand.
