To convert 110v to 12v using a transformer, you would need a transformer with a turns ratio of 9.17:1. This means the primary winding (110v) would have 9.17 times more turns than the secondary winding (12v), allowing for the voltage conversion. Make sure to select a transformer with the appropriate power rating to handle the load at 12v.

It convert 220v or 115 to -12v and +12v by using many components and step down transformer.


How do you convert 24volts to 12 volts?

If you want to convert 24v AC into 12v Ac, it's simple. Just get a transformer to convert 24 volts into 12 volts. This is called a stepdown transformer. If you want to convert 24v DC into 12v DC, it's more complicated. First you have to change the 24v DC into 24v AC by a switching converter that changes DC into AC. Then you would use a stepdown transformer as in the former example. Once the 24v AC is converted to 12v AC, then you use a rectifier bridge to change the 12v AC into 12v DC.


A doorbell is connected to a 110v supply but it operates only about 12 v-14 v. What kind of transformer does it have?

The doorbell uses a step-down transformer, which reduces the higher 110V supply voltage to the lower operating voltage of 12V-14V. This transformer is designed specifically for doorbells and similar low-voltage devices, ensuring safe and efficient operation while allowing the doorbell to function correctly.


I need To connect a compressor to a car battery for a project and the compressor requires 110 volts 8 amps is that possible in anyway?

It is possible in theory. Your car battery produces 12v DC. Your compressor requires 110v AC. You can use an inverter to convert your 12v DC into 110v AC. But the real question is how long will your battery last? Does the battery even have sufficient stored energy to start up the compressor in the 1st place? A draw of 8 amps at 110v is a lot...


Will using a transformer to convert 230V to 12V DC consume more energy than using a few capacitors and resistors without a transformer?

no, the transformer is much more efficient <><><> HOWEVER- a transformer only changes the voltage of AC current- it does not change it to DC. You will still need diodes or rectifiers. You can also use a motor/generator- a 230v AC motor turns a 12 v DC generator.

What is known as control transformer?

THIS IS ONLY DESCRIPTIVE NAME - THE TRANSFORMER USED IN CONTROL PANELS ARE USED FOR STEPPING DOWN TO A LOWER AND SAFER VOLTAGE HANDLING BY TECHNICIANS - 220V,110V, 48V, 24V, 12V, 6V. USUALLY FOR THE COILS OF CONTACTORS, RELAYS, TIMERS, PROTECTIVE DEVICES, PILOT LAMPS, METERINGS.


Can i use 12v -0-12v to 230v step up transformer to get more voltages let say 2000v?

If you exceed the rated voltage of your transformer, there is a high possibility that its insulation will break down and you will ruin that transformer.


How do you convert 12V to 110AC?

Is the 12V AC or DC? If it's AC, you find a transformer that can step up voltage by approximately a factor of 10, and adjust the output as necessary (e.g. with a voltage divider). If it's DC, then you can build an oscillator that runs on 12V DC and then put it into a transformer. Be sure to know how your oscillator's waveform is effected by the transformer.
