Transformers are static electrical devices that transform electrical energy from one circuit to another through electromagnetic induction. They work by using a changing magnetic field in one coil to induce a voltage in another coil without changing the frequency. Transformers can be used to step up or step down voltages and are commonly used to efficiently increase or decrease AC voltages in power transmission and distribution systems. They are classified based on their application, number of phases, construction type, and whether they are used for power transmission or distribution.
This document provides an overview of transformers, including their structure, working principle, construction, losses, and applications. Transformers are devices that change AC electric power at one voltage level to another through magnetic coupling of two coils. They allow interchange of electric energy between circuits without a direct connection. The transformer consists of a primary coil, secondary coil, and magnetic core. When an alternating current flows through the primary, it induces a changing magnetic flux that is transferred to the secondary coil to induce voltage. Transformers experience losses from copper, hysteresis, and eddy currents. They are used widely in power transmission and applications like televisions and cameras.

A transformer transfers electrical energy from one circuit to another through electromagnetic induction. It works by using two coils - a primary winding that receives energy from an alternating current source, and a secondary winding that delivers energy to a load. As the magnetic field in the primary coil fluctuates, it induces an alternating voltage in the secondary coil. This allows the transformer to increase or decrease voltage levels while keeping frequency constant. Common transformer types include power transformers used in electrical equipment and autotransformers with a single winding and movable tap to select different output voltages.

1. A transformer is a device that converts alternating current (AC) of one voltage to another voltage without changing the frequency. It consists of coils wrapped around a common core and uses electromagnetic induction.
2. Nikola Tesla proposed using transformers to increase voltage for efficient power transmission over long distances, then step it back down for safe distribution and use. This system replaced the inefficient direct current system developed by Edison.
3. Transformers allow efficient transmission of power by reducing current and thus transmission losses, while maintaining the same power level. They are essential components for modern power distribution systems.
Power transformers work by mutual induction between two windings without any direct electrical connection. An alternating current applied to the primary winding produces an alternating magnetic flux that links with the secondary winding. This induces an alternating voltage in the secondary winding due to Faraday's law of induction. The primary winding is connected to the power source and the secondary winding supplies power to the load. The transformation ratio is determined by the number of turns in each winding and determines whether the transformer steps up or steps down the voltage. Transformer losses include copper losses in the windings and magnetic (iron) losses in the core.
- Tesla proposed using transformers in power distribution systems to step up voltage for transmission and step down voltage for consumption, reducing power losses.
- A transformer consists of coils wrapped around a common core and converts AC voltage from one level to another at the same frequency through electromagnetic induction.
- Transformers allow impedance matching between generation/transmission systems and distribution/consumption systems through voltage transformation ratios.
The document summarizes the history and development of electrical power distribution systems. It discusses:
