DESCRIPTION
A power transformer is a static device that transfers electrical energy from one circuit to another without changing frequency. They work on the principle of electromagnetic induction and can step up or step down the voltage level of the AC power supply. Power transformers are vital to the transmission, distribution and utilization of electricity in various industries. They come in various types, specifications and applications depending on their design, function and purpose.

electrical transformer
Power transformers are widely used in various sectors, such as:
Power generation: Power transformers are used to step up the voltage generated by power plants for transmission to substations.
Power transmission: Power transformers are used to step up or step down the voltage at different points of the transmission network for efficient power delivery.
Power distribution: Power transformers are used to step down the voltage for distribution to domestic or commercial users. It operates at variable loads depending on the demand and has good voltage regulation.
Power generation: Power transformers are used to step up the voltage of the electricity generated by power plants before it is sent to the grid. This reduces the current and the line losses during transmission.
Power transmission: Power transformers are used to step up or step down the voltage at different points of the transmission network for efficient power delivery. They also provide galvanic isolation and impedance matching between different circuits.
Power distribution: Power transformers are used to step down the voltage for distribution to various consumers. They also provide multiple voltage levels for different applications, such as lighting, heating, cooling, communication, etc.
Lighting: Power transformers are used to provide low voltage and high currents for lighting systems, such as fluorescent lamps, neon signs, etc.
Audio systems: Power transformers are used to isolate and amplify audio signals in speakers, amplifiers, microphones, etc.
Electronic equipment: Power transformers are used to provide low voltage and regulated power supply for electronic devices, such as computers, televisions, radios, etc.
