A basic, two-winding, transformer consists of two, separate, coils (called windings) wound around a laminated silicon-steel core. The winding connected to the supply (input) is called the primary winding, and the winding supplying the load is called the secondary winding.
Alternating current flowing in the primary winding sets up an alternating magnetic field in the core which induces a voltage into the secondary winding. If there are fewer turns in the secondary winding, then the secondary voltage is lower than the primary voltage. If there are more turns in the secondary winding, then the secondary voltage is higher than the primary voltage.
Yes, many large buildings are built with electrical vaults to house the electrical distribution system. The high voltage enters the building usually underground, where it connects to a transformer. The secondary side of the transformer is connected to a distribution system where the supply voltage is then sent to the individual apartment sub panels.
You can if done carefully. The neutral of one transformer must be set up to be at the positive voltage of the other transformer. This might require an intermediate step transformer that is center tapped (so three instead of 2 transformers).
The primary coil is the one with voltage applied, or the 'input'. The secondary coil is the one in which a voltage is induced by electromagnetism, or the 'output'. In a step up transformer, the secondary coil voltage is higher than the primary. In a step down transformer, the secondary coil voltage is lower than the primary. In an isolation transformer, the secondary coil voltage is the same as the primary. Here, the point of the transformer isn't to raise or lower voltage, but to keep a particular circuit electrically disconnected from another circuit, while still allowing the circuits to function together (through electromagnetism).
In short, probably. Transformers step power up or down by a multiplicative factor based on the number of turns in the two transformer coils. Therefore, if you put more voltage in you're going to get a proportional increase in the voltage out.
Take the KVA and divide it by the voltage. 25/.230 = 109 amps. The transformer can put out up to 50% more that its rated for short durations. So you could get around 150 amps out of a 25 Kva tranformer in a worst case situation.
It's common to put arcing horns on the HV side of a power transformer to short out voltage spikes arriving from lightning strikes along the line.
A step-down transformer lowers the voltage of an AC current. The higher AC current is put through one side and the other side the lower AC current is delivered.
The purpose of a transformer is to transform one voltage to another voltage. This can be in the configuration of stepping up the voltage or stepping down the voltage . The load is what establishes what the current from the transformer is going to be.
Put a seprate transformer. It will solve this issue
A transformer can change any AC voltage to any other AC voltage. But if you put DC into a transformer, the main component at the output is smoke. Furthermore, sir, you have insulted 12 volts by implying that it is undesirable.
Yes, the more voltage you put in the more you get out. If the transformer is a 2 - 1 ratio and you put 240 in you get 120 out and when you put 480 in you get 240 out. Magnetic field strength and voltage have a direct relationship. +++ The field strength is actually a function of current, although as you say, increasing the voltage will increase the current hence the magnetic field.

To calculate the transformer ratio when the output voltage is known, you can use the formula: Transformer Ratio (Turns Ratio) = Output Voltage (Secondary Voltage) / Input Voltage (Primary Voltage). If you're given the output voltage and the input voltage, simply divide the output voltage by the input voltage to obtain the turns ratio. This ratio indicates the relationship between the number of turns in the primary coil to the number of turns in the secondary coil.
A home voltage stabilizer reduces (buck) or increases (boost) the out put voltage for respective increase and decrease in line voltage. To reduce output voltage the relay cutoff some transformer winding turns, and to increase output voltage the relay add some transformer winding turns in predefined steps.
