In power distribution systems, three-phase transformer configuration directly impacts system reliability and load management.

Those readers who have experimented with winding their own inductors will know that it’s not an easy task, and when those inductors are handling high voltages it can be especially tricky to maintain ...

step-down transformers decrease the voltage. The transformer in the diagram above is a step-down transformer – there are fewer turns on the secondary coil than on the primary coil. Type of transformer ...

So you have an old tube-type transmitter as a backup. It ran perfectly when you last turned it on two years ago to substitute for your then-ailing solid-state main transmitter. Now you need it again.

Transformers quietly handle one of the most important jobs in the power grid—changing voltage levels so electricity can travel safely. This video explains how coils and magnetic fields work together ...

Transformers are deceptively simple devices. Just coils of wire sharing a common core, they tempt you into thinking you can make your own, and in many cases you can. But DIY transformers have their ...

MATERIALS that conduct electricity without losing any of it are the stuff that electricity companies dream of. In fact, they are far from being a pipe dream. All metals, as a Dutch physicist, Heike ...

Police said it was around 7 a.m when a few farmers noticed that the transformer was dismantled from concrete poles and kept on the muddy stretch near farmland in the village. Copper coils and wires in ...
