Best Answer

Assuming that the voltage rating of the lamp matches the rated secondary voltage of the transformer, the lamp will operate at its rated power.

What is the load side of a transformer?

The load side of a transformer feeds the device, such as a light or motor. It is the output of the transformer. The input, or line side, provides the voltage that is to be transformed, either up or down, to supply the load side.AnswerA transformer's primary winding is connected to the supply voltage, and the secondary winding is connected to the load.

Can you power a 12 volt dc indicator light from a 16 volt ac door bell transformer?

No, the 12 VDC light must have a DC supply and the transformer voltage as well as being 16 volts which is too high, the output is AC.


Does led lighting require a transformer per light or one per circuit?

One transformer should feed several led's in parallel, but you have to work out how much current each one will take, total it up, and then get a transformer with the correct output voltage and that can supply the total current. Don't exceed the transformer max current or it may fail through overheating


Is the power transformer switched off under light load conditions?

No, the transformer has to supply the load, whether it is light or heavy.


What is the input or output of the light bulb?

Input to light bulb is Electricity and output is light.

The other components are still connected to the circuit


How do you reduce Transformer 6VA to 3VA?

In 2 words, you cannot! It is like asking how can I make a 60W light bulb into a 30W light bulb. If you are wanting to know this because a specification dictates that you need a 3VA transformer then anything larger is OK. However, you must pay attention to the voltages on the transformer. Firstly, assuming that this transformer is to operate on the mains supply, it should have the correct primary voltage for the mains supply in your area. In most, though not all of Europe, it is standardised at 230V 50Hz. The secondary (usually the output) should have the desired voltage output. This, for example, might be 6V A.C. If it is the only output then, if it is a 6VA transformer, it will be able to supply 1A maximum current. If it is a 3VA transformer, supplying 6V, it will be able to supply a current of 0.5A maximum. The term VA is for Volt-Amps. It refers to the power that would be developed in a resistive load. Hence the secondary voltage (V) multiplied by the maximum current rating (A) gives VA. Thus, if you have a transformer rated at 12VA and the secondary voltage is 5V then the maximum current the transformer can supply is VA/V=12/5=2.40AAnother AnswerThe volt ampere rating of a transformer simply indicates the maximum load it can supply without overheating. The same transformer can supply ANY load below that value. So there's absolutely no problem operating a 6 V.A transformer at 3 V.A.
