  2. Tesla coil - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tesla_coil

    [26] [27] [28] They consist of a two coil air-core step-up transformer similar to the Tesla transformer, with the secondary connected to a third coil not magnetically coupled to the others, called the "extra" or "resonator" coil, which is series-fed and resonates with its own capacitance. The output is taken from the free end of this coil.

  3. Isolated-phase bus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isolated-phase_bus

    In electrical engineering, isolated-phase bus (IPB), also known as phase-isolated bus (PIB) in some countries, is a method of construction for circuits carrying very large currents, typically between a generator and its step-up transformer in a steam or large hydroelectric power plant. Isolated phase bus during installation at the Bui Dam Ghana ...

  4. Equivalent impedance transforms - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equivalent_impedance...

    Shunt and series impedance network through a step-up transformer. These transforms do not just apply to single elements; entire networks can be passed through the transformer. In this manner, the transformer can be shifted around the network to a more convenient location.

  5. Transformer types - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transformer_types

    A leakage transformer, also called a stray-field transformer, has a significantly higher leakage inductance than other transformers, sometimes increased by a magnetic bypass or shunt in its core between primary and secondary, which is sometimes adjustable with a set screw. This provides a transformer with an inherent current limitation due to ...

  6. Electric power conversion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electric_power_conversion

    Transformers are used in power converters to incorporate electrical isolation and voltage step-down or step up. The secondary circuit is floating, when you touch the secondary circuit, you merely drag its potential to your body's potential or the earth's potential. There will be no current flowing through your body.

  7. Boost converter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boost_converter

    A boost converter or step-up converter is a DC-to-DC converter that increases voltage, while decreasing current, from its input to its output . It is a class of switched-mode power supply (SMPS) containing at least two semiconductors, a diode and a transistor , and at least one energy storage element: a capacitor , inductor , or the two in ...

  8. Autotransformer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Autotransformer

    In a step-up transformer, conversely, the load is attached across the full winding while the source is connected to a tap across a portion of the winding. For a step-up transformer, the subscripts in the above equations are reversed where, in this situation, N 2 {\displaystyle N_{2}} and V 2 {\displaystyle V_{2}} are greater than N 1 ...
