Best Answer

For any power supply application you hav eto measure the supply specifications with the load specifications.

If the supply is AC the load should be designed to use AC and the same for DC to DC.

The voltages should match up.

The current that the load requires must be less than or equal to the current that can be provided by the supply.

Lastly the wires connecting the supply to the load must be sized to carry the current required by the load.

What does the power rating of a transformer imply?

Knowing the power rating of a transformer will help an operator use the transformer within its design limitations with regard to heating of the windings and their insulation.


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.

What does filter do in a transformer?

A transformer does not use a filter. You may be asking about the use of a filter in a power supply. A power supply uses a filter to change pulsating DC from the rectifier into smooth DC for the circuits that the power supply powers.


What kind of transformer do you need to run a ho train with 30 feet of track?

You can't use a transformer. HO models all run on DC current, AC will destroy them. You can buy HO power supplies, and for 30 ft of track almost any one would do.


Can a teaser transformer can be use as 3 phase power supply?

yes


Can you use transformer in place of amplifier?

A transformer is a passive device while an amplifier is an active device. a transformer can amplify voltage but never power WHILE AN AMPLIFIER CAN amplify power's can you use it sure withing the limitation of the transformer and only to amplify volts.


Can you use a 270 watt in a 300 watt transformer?

If you mean how to use a resistance of so much power then it can be easily done through a step-down transformer which lowers the voltage supply and hence the power.


State three reasons for the widespread use of transformer?

The three main reasons for the widespread use of transformer are power outage, more power supply and sustainability among consumers. This is what has made the transformers to be much appreciated.


What do transformer coil have to do with the way the transformer control voltage in alternating current?

Transformer coils are normally used to step down power from high power lines to a power you can actually use in your house. This works through the ratio of windings on a coil to the windings on the output side.
