It steps down voltage by moving the iron core spacing. Mostly using on high current welding transformer. Easy to achieve changing output voltage

and does not need to use high power selector to switch voltage

What is the purpose of conducting sc and oc test of single phase transformer?

The purpose of conducting sc (short circuit) and oc (open circuit) tests on a single-phase transformer is to determine its equivalent circuit parameters, such as the winding resistance, leakage reactance, and magnetizing reactance. These tests help to evaluate the transformer's performance and efficiency under various operating conditions.


Can you put a transformer on a 32 amp generate to drop the amps to 16 amps?

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.

What is the purpose of OC and SC tests on single phase transformer?

Open circuit and short circuit tests are performed to determine transformer characteristics. In the case of a single phase transformer, SC tests would be performed to determine the impedance. The open circuit test will give excitation information (% excitation at specific voltages, often 90%, 100% and 110%, and no load losses).


Does a transformer convert AC to DC?

No, a transformer does not change AC to DC. For this purpose there is a device known as a rectifier, and to transform it back to AC from DC you'll need an inverter. Transformers are only useful with AC due to the alternating waveform which induces a voltage in the secondary winding (when it is connected to a load).
