Yes a transformer should be used. The steam table needs its correct voltage otherwise on 240 volts it will operate over its given specified nameplate wattage. A 208 volt heating element run off of 240 volt will have an output increase by 75 percent.

What does the terminology - radial feed - mean in relationship to transformers?

This terminology usually refers to pad mounted transformers. A "radial feed " transformer is a transformer that has one bushing for the high voltage cable line. The high voltage cable terminates into the transformer through the transformer's bushing. There is no second bushing for the high voltage cable to continue further down the line. This type of transformer is usually on the end of a loop feed circuit. This is different from a "loop feed" transformer whose incoming cables are terminated at the primary bushings. On this type of transformer there is a second bushing which connects to the outgoing primary voltage cables that allows the primary to feed another transformer. Each pad mount transformer's secondary feed usually supplies enough power to connect up to four homes.


What is the difference between a set down and a set up transformer?

Set down transformer are also referred to step down transformers. They are used in regulating the electrical voltage before it can be used to feed a house. While step up transformer are mainly found in the generation stations to improve the voltage generated by the turbine. Thanks.

Can a 1500KVA transformer feed a 1600A 480V service?

No, a 1500KVA transformer is not large enough to handle a 1600A load at 480V. The transformer should have a higher kVA rating to support the current demand of 1600A. A transformer with a minimum capacity of 1920KVA would be needed for this application.


How do close formula feeds differ from open formula feeds?

The feed system cycles between boiler and turbine and enables the steam to return to the boiler as feed water. A closed feed cycles a main propulsion steam run turbine through a high pressure water tube boiler. The condenser, set to a high vacuum, will receive the steam turbine exhaust.

Why are step-down transformers used?

A step-down transformer is a reverse-wired step-up transformer. You can take a 110/220 transformer and feed 110 to step up to 220 or feed 220 to step down to 110. step down transformer is a device which reduces voltage .

What is a signal pulse transformer?

usually a small transformer ferrite rather than iron core for short pulses it is more for isolation than anything else trigger for scr or triac the previous question for a power pulse transformer these are in cars ignition transformers the newer cars generally have one on each cylinder the computer may feed may feed a signal pulse through the small transformer to isolate the computer from the big one. to an scr to discharge a capacitor thru the ignition transformer (cars use the terms condenser and coil)
