What is Transformator, Structure , Operation

Welcome, visitors and followers of the Electron Tips blog. In today's topic, we will talk about the most important elements of the electrical network, which is the Transformator, which relies on electrical energy conversion, so what do we mean by an electrical transformer? How does the electrical transformer work in electrical circuits?


Definition of Transformator :

 It is an electrical element that consists mainly of two electric coils (the secondary coil and the primary coil), and its main role is to convert the electrical voltage, and it is used to raise or reduce the voltage on the value of the voltage we need to feed a certain electrical circuit.

The electrical transformer consists of three basic elements: the primary coil, the secondary coil, and the iron mold that collects all the other components.


Primary coil : It is the electrical coil responsible for receiving high electrical energy or to be converted (raising or lowering it), and it is often made of copper material, and it has a certain number of windings that form the basis of the work of the electrical transformer.


Secondary coil: It is also an electrical coil made of copper and is responsible for feeding the load or the electronic circuit to be operated, and it also has a certain number of windings.


Iron Mold: The iron mold is made to withstand the magnetic flux that the silos (electrical coils) cause inside, and it often consists of multiple pieces made of iron.

How does the electrical transformer work:

Since the electrical transformer consists of two main electrical coils, when an electric current passes through the first (primary) coil, it affects the second coil (secondary coil), by creating a magnetic field inside the iron mold of the electrical transformer with what is called magnetic induction, which leads to activation the transmission of electrons in the secondary coil and the transmission of electrons is a transmission of electricity. This is the principle of the operation of the electrical transformer.


Important note When using an electrical transformer to reduce voltage, the number of primary coil rolls is greater than the secondary coil rolls.


Can the electrical transformer be used in continuous electric current?

 the answer is no, because the electrical transformers depend primarily on the so-called magnetic induction only related to alternating current, which changes from negative to positive in fractions of a second, and this feature is not available in continuous electric current as it does not change and does not have AC reverse frequency.


The electrical transformer uses :

The electrical transformer many uses, whether in electrical and electronic devices or in electrical power distribution networks, and these are the most important uses of electrical transformers :

He likes to raise her electric voltage because of the ease of long-distance electrical energy, and electrical transformers are also used in electrical power distribution stations to reduce their voltage to the voltage that is used in homes and industrial facilities. 


It is used in electrical and electronic devices. Increased chargers, as it reduces the voltage from 220 volts to 12 volts or less, depending on the type of charger and the type of device used.

Why are electrical transformers measured in KVA and motors in KW

Why are electrical transformers measured in KVA and motors in KW   Why are electrical transformers measured in KVA and motors in KW Welcome to the Electron Tips website. In this topic, we will learn about the reason for measuring electrical transformers in the unit KVA (kilovolt-ampere) and electric motors in the unit of kilowatt (KW).   Why electric motors are measured in KW:  An electric motor is an electrical device that consumes effective electrical power, which is why it is expressed in units of kilowatts or horsepower because it expresses the amount of electrical energy that the motor has benefited from, and it means the actual power used for mechanical purposes and expresses the actual performance of the electric motor (effective power), because  Inefficient power will do nothing for the electric motor.   The reason for measuring electrical transformers in KVA:  Electrical transformers' primary role is to convert electrical voltages, as they do not ...

What is a perfect ground resistance value

What is a perfect ground resistance value   What is a good ground resistance value Grounding is considered one of the most important systems that must be present in all electrical installations, whether in homes, buildings, or even power transmission lines. Grounding is essential for protecting people and electrical equipment from electric current leakage.  Previously, we provided a comprehensive guide on how to establish a grounding system from scratch and the key components you would need. You can view the topic [ here ]. In this article, we will explore the optimal value for good grounding resistance and how you can measure it using a Megger device. Optimal Grounding Resistance Value: Before installing a grounding system in the soil, it is essential to measure the earth resistance value using a Megger Device, especially if sensitive devices and equipment will be installed in the area. The ideal earth resistance value is zero, though achieving this value is practically impos...

Is lightning direct current or alternating current

Is lightning direct current or alternating current  Is lightning direct current or alternating current Many people ask about the type of electricity found in lightning, and in this small article we will explain to you whether lightning is a continuous or alternating electrical current. First, let us get to know the definition of the phenomenon of lightning and how it occurs.   Definition of lightning:  Lightning is a massive electrical discharge, meaning it contains very high electrical energy, ranging from 1 to 10 million joules. The temperature of lightning may reach 30,000 degrees Celsius, and this discharge may occur between the ground and the cloud or between two clouds together. Related articles: Can the capacitor charge the battery   The answer to the question: What is the electric current in lightning?  The electric current in lightning is an alternating electric current because it changes direction quickly and repeatedly in a short time over a short per...
