Transformers cannot amplify!
What else can I help you with?
What type of current must be used with a transformer?
DC current cannot be used in a transformer only AC will work. A transformer needs the continual build and collapse of the magnetic field to keep the iron core from reaching saturation. Only alternating current will transfer power through a transformer.
What is the difference between power transformer and instrument transformer?
A power transformer is used to provide power (to your home, for example), an instrument transformer is used to measure voltage or current (for metering, for example).
Why no load current in transformer small?
No load current is energizing current. This is effectively "lost" power, power used in the transformer to energize the core. It, therefore, should be small!
What is a curect transformer?
A 'current transformer' is a type of transformer which, together with a 'voltage transformer' (or 'potential transformer' in N America), is classified as being an 'instrument transformer'. It is used to reduce large currents to smaller currents which can be measured safely, and to isolate the primary circuit from the secondary circuit for the purposes of safety. Current transformers are also used to drive protective relays used in high-voltage protection systems.
Why ac current is used in a transformer?
AC current or DC current can be used in transformers. A transformer is made of two coils of wire, the input coil induces a current into the output coil. Transformers change the voltage either up (step up transformer) or down (step down transformer). The amount of change in voltage is dependent solely on the number of windings in both coils in the transformer. DC transformers work exactly the same way AC transformers do.
Explain differancnce between instrument current transformer and measuring current transformer?
Current transformer is a device used to measure the flow of current through a power system and the measured current is inputted to a protective relay system. It is used to detect system malfunction. Current transducer is a device used to measure AC and DC current based on the halt-effect technology.
How is current controlled in welding transformer?
in welding machine, the transformer used is basically a current transforrmer. so by changing the tap of secondary side of transformer, we can increase or decrease the current in the transformer.
Difference between potential transformer and current trasnformer?
The difference between current transformer and potential transformer is that the secondary of a current transformer can not be open circuited while under service whereas that of the potential transformer an be open circuited without any damage to the transformer.
Can you amplify the AC in your data center using an AC transformer and how?
Yes, the AC current can be amplified by using Step-down transformers, but one problem is the AC voltage will decrease with Step-down transformer.
What device can be used to increase current in a DC circuit?
Transformer or instrument transformer. It can increase and decrease current output.
Can you use transformer with your 110 aircon?
A transformer can be used to change the voltage to an appliance. The voltage rating of the transformer should be right for the voltages used, and the current rating of the transformer should not be less than the current drawn by the equipment.
What is the reason for using a neutral current transformer on a transformer?
A current transformer is primarily used at the neutral point of a transformer for earth fault protection. A neutral current transformer will measure any ground fault current which will essentially flow from the star point of the transformer. A fault-detection device other devices is connected to the current transformer and, if the fault current exceeds a certain trigger value, the fault-detection device will give a trip command to an earth-fault relay to disconnect the supply of electricity to the transformer.
Is ther any amplifier which can amplify without an external current supply?
A step up transformer can increase the voltage at the expense of lower current.ie power is the same
What type of transformer connection can be used when it is necessary to rectify alternating current into direct current with a minimum of ripple?
bride transformer
What type of current must be used with a transformer?
DC current cannot be used in a transformer only AC will work. A transformer needs the continual build and collapse of the magnetic field to keep the iron core from reaching saturation. Only alternating current will transfer power through a transformer.
What is the used of conductors in a transformer?
Without conductors, no current could flow -an essential requirement of a transformer!
What is the difference between power transformer and instrument transformer?
A power transformer is used to provide power (to your home, for example), an instrument transformer is used to measure voltage or current (for metering, for example).
