Past and Present Stage Of Transformers

<p style&equals;"text-align&colon; justify&semi;">Electrical transformers have been used for a long time because of their ability to transform the voltage form a specific level to another&comma; like for instance&comma; from a higher to a lower voltage&period; This is done through the application of the principle called magnetic induction between the coils which helps to covert current levels or voltage&period;Transformers are highly important because they play a vital role when distributing electrical power&period; They help to raise the voltage of electricity that is generated at power plants to the levels that are required in order to transmit electricity efficiently&period;<&sol;p>&NewLine;<p style&equals;"text-align&colon; justify&semi;">There are also other transformers that help to reduce voltage at places where electricity is supposed to be utilized&period; Many of the households have transformers that lower or raise the home current voltage to the amount required by the house&period; For instance&comma; stereo and television equipment require a higher voltage whereas thermostats and doorbells require lower voltages&period; Polemount Transformers are mostly used to service rural&comma; urban&comma; commercial&comma; and residential loads&period;<&sol;p>&NewLine;<h2 style&equals;"text-align&colon; justify&semi;">How Transformers Work<&sol;h2>&NewLine;<p style&equals;"text-align&colon; justify&semi;">Electrical transformers are more of passive devices that help to transform alternating current from one circuit to another through the mechanism called electromagnetic induction&period; A transformer contains a ferromagnetic core along with two coils or more consisting of an insulated wire called the windings&period; The changing current within the primary winding initiates an alternating magnetic field within the core&period; This makes the core multiply this field and transmits most of the produced flux through secondary transformer windings&period; This causes an alternating voltage to be produced in the secondary coils&period;<&sol;p>&NewLine;<p style&equals;"text-align&colon; justify&semi;">As mentioned above&comma; there is a step up transformer that helps to increase the voltage&comma; and then there is a step down transformer that helps to decrease the voltage&period;<&sol;p>&NewLine;<p style&equals;"text-align&colon;

justify&semi;">Reasons Why AC Voltage Transformer Is Used<&sol;h2>&NewLine;<p style&equals;"text-align&colon; justify&semi;">The reasons why we use an AC voltage transformer is because these currents and voltages have to be reduced to a much lower&comma; usable&comma; and a safer level while being supplied and used within our workplaces and homes&period; This is exactly what transformers help to achieve&period; They reduce a high alternating voltage to a lower one before entering our homes&period;<&sol;p>&NewLine;<h2 style&equals;"text-align&colon; justify&semi;">History<&sol;h2>&NewLine;<p style&equals;"text-align&colon; justify&semi;">The transformer was first invented by Ottó Bláthy&comma; Miksa Déri&comma; and Károly Zipernowsky for commercial and experimental systems&period; The induction property in the transformer was first discovered in the 1830&&num;8217&semi;s&comma; however William Stanley was the first one to build the first design that was refined and could be commercially used&period; The very first AC powered transformer was used in the Great Barrington in Massachusetts in the year 1886&period;<&sol;p>&NewLine;<h2 style&equals;"text-align&colon; justify&semi;">Usage in the Olden Days<&sol;h2>&NewLine;<p style&equals;"text-align&colon; justify&semi;">The building of a transformer about 130 years ago brought a technical revolution in the world of electrical energy that we see today&period; Nobody now will be able to imagine living without electricity&period; The earlier hydro and small steam generators could not generate enough power to supply to the increasing demands of the industrial and fast growing city centers&period; The voltage levels were required to be increased and something needed to be done about voltage drops and incurred losses&period; This paved way to the power transformer&period; With the transformer&comma; more electricity could be transmitted to cater to the increased demands of the city life&period;<&sol;p>&NewLine;<p style&equals;"text-align&colon; justify&semi;">Transformers are a necessity for the lifestyle that we live today because without them there will be no electricity&period; They help to generate electricity and transmit this electricity over long distances without any interruption so that industrial complexes and urban centers could be provided with power&period; We can see around us that transformers these days have progressed a lot and will continue to progress in the future as well&period;<&sol;p>&NewLine;
