secondary of a transformer
21Transformer — An electromagnetic device that changes the voltage of alternating current electricity. It consists of an induction coil having a primary and secondary winding and a closed iron core. A device for changing the voltage of alternating current.… …
22Current transformer — A CT for operation on a 110 kV grid In electrical engineering, a current transformer (CT) is used for measurement of electric currents. Current transformers, together with voltage transformers (VT) (potential transformers (PT)), are known as …
23Distribution transformer — Single phase distribution transformer in Canada A distribution transformer is a transformer that provides the final voltage transformation in the electric power distribution system, stepping down the voltage used in the distribution lines to the… …
24Flyback transformer — A flyback or line output transformer (FBT or LOPT) is a type of transformer used in the power supply of a cathode ray tube that generates the high voltage needed to drive a CRT type monitor, and can also be used to power a plasma globe. It… …
25Rotary variable differential transformer — A rotary variable differential transformer (RVDT) is a type of electrical transformer used for measuring angular displacement.More precisely, a Rotary Variable Differential Transformer (RVDT) is an electromechanical transducer that provides a… …
26Scott-T transformer — A Scott T Transformer (also called a Scott Connection) is a type of circuit used to derive two phase (2 φ) current from a three phase (3 φ) source or vice versa. The Scott connection evenly distributes a balanced load between the phases of the… …
27Isolation transformer — An isolation transformer is a transformer, often with symmetrical windings, which is used to decouple two circuits. An isolation transformer allows an AC signal or power to be taken from one device and fed into another without electrically… …
28Zigzag transformer — A zigzag transformer is a special purpose transformer. It has primary windings but no secondary winding. One application is to derive an earth reference point for an ungrounded electrical system. Another is to control harmonic currents.As with… …
29Rotary transformer — A rotary (rotatory) transformer is a specialized transformer used to couple electrical signals between two parts which rotate in relation to each other.Slip rings could be used for the same purpose, but these would be subject to friction, wear,… …
30Linear variable differential transformer — The linear variable differential transformer (LVDT) is a type of electrical transformer used for measuring linear displacement. The transformer has three solenoidal coils placed end to end around a tube. The centre coil is the primary, and the… …
