Its secondary must never be open circuited. If its burden is to be removed, then the secondary must be short circuited first, and removed only after the burden is replaced.

What happens when input voltage is fed to the secondary winding of a transformer?

The transformer operates in reverse. In other words, a step-down transformer becomes step-up, and vice-versa. Example: a transformer with a 480 volt primary and 120 volt secondary: Ratio = 4:1 (480/120=4) Fed in reverse - Ratio = 1:4 Apply 120 volts, output is 480. Note that if you accidentally reverse the transformer, still feeding it with 480 volts, the output would be 1920 volts (480 X 4 = 1920) - probably not a good thing!


How does an auxiliary transformer work?

Auxiliary transformer- current transformer The current transformer is working based on two theories. 1.Ampheres law. 2.Faradays law. Amp.law- whenever a current flows through the conductor it will produce magnetic flux around the conductor. based on above principle- current flows through the primary will induce a magnetic flux in the CT core. Faraday law- whenever a conductor cuts the magnetic flux or magnetic flux cuts the conductor will induce a emf across the conductor based on above principle- the magnetic flux in the core will cuts the windings. so emf is induced across the secondary terminals . whenever the secondary terminals connected with burden will make a closed path and current flows through the secondary to burden.

Is it dangerous to run an appliance with more watts than the transformer?

A transformer has a rating that is usually expressed in KVA. This is approximately a wattage rating. It is not dangerous but it can be the cause of some concern. An appliance has a set current that is draws. This current times the voltage is the appliance's wattage. The same goes for the transformer. It only has a certain capacity to supply a specific current that is governed by its KVA (watts). Driving the transformer beyond its rated capacity tends to heat the transformer beyond its working temperature. If left in this over current draw the transformer's windings insulation will break down and the windings will short circuit. This is usually the end of a working transformer. So short answer, more watts (amps) from appliance equals burned out transformer.

Why transformer not working in dc supply?

Because it is only possible to have a voltage in the secondary winding when the current in the primary is changing. This is why only alternating current can be used for transformers.

How do I install a doorbell transformer?

To install a doorbell transformer, first turn off the power to the area where you will be working. Locate the existing transformer and disconnect the wires. Mount the new transformer in a suitable location near an outlet. Connect the wires to the new transformer, following the manufacturer's instructions. Turn the power back on and test the doorbell to ensure it is working properly.
