Transformer winding primary (usually high-voltage) connecting wires are of many types. They may be labeled as H 1, H 2 (sometimes H 0 if it is internally designed to be grounded) and X 1, X2 and sometimes an X 3 tap may be present. Sometimes a second isolated winding (Y 1, Y 2, Y 3) (and third (Z 1, Z 2, Z 3) may also be available on the same ...
The equivalent power rating of the autotransformer is lower than the actual load power rating. It is calculated by: load VA × (|Vin – Vout|)/Vin. [2] For example, an auto transformer that adapts a 1000 VA load rated at 120 volts to a 240 volt supply has an equivalent rating of at least: 1,000 VA (240 V – 120 V) / 240 V = 500 VA.
In electrical engineering, a transformer is a passive component that transfers electrical energy from one electrical circuit to another circuit, or multiple circuits.A varying current in any coil of the transformer produces a varying magnetic flux in the transformer's core, which induces a varying electromotive force (EMF) across any other coils wound around the same core.

The invention of a practical, efficient transformer made AC power distribution feasible; a system using distribution transformers was demonstrated as early as 1882. [2] If mounted on a utility pole, they are called pole-mount transformers. Suppose the distribution lines are located at ground level or underground.
In electronics testing and servicing, an isolation transformer is a 1:1 (under load) power transformer used for safety. Without it, exposed live metal in a device under test is at a hazardous voltage relative to grounded objects such as a heating radiator or oscilloscope ground lead (a particular hazard with some old vacuum-tube equipment with ...
Two-phase power can be derived from a three-phase source using two transformers in a Scott connection: One transformer primary is connected across two phases of the supply. The second transformer is connected to a center-tap of the first transformer, and is wound for 86.6% of the phase-to-phase voltage on the three-phase system.
The circle diagram (also known as Heyland diagram or Heyland circle) is the graphical representation of the performance of the electrical machine [1] [2] [3] drawn in terms of the locus of the machine's input voltage and current. [4] It was first conceived by Alexander Heyland in 1894 and Bernhard Arthur Behrend in 1895.
