What are the Functions of Electrical Transformer?

Electrical transformer is a machine that works on the principle of electromagnetic induction. Without electrical transformer, the distance between power plants and different types of consumers will be shortened, which is not conducive to social development. Therefore, we can say that this electrical transformer can make power distribution more efficient, bringing convenience to people.

What are the functions of electrical transformer?

Electrical transformer is one of the equipment in power plants and substations. The role of electrical transformer is multifaceted. It can not only increase the voltage to send electricity to the power consumption area, but also reduce the voltage to meet different power consumption needs.

The electrical transformer is composed of two or more coil windings wound on the same iron core. The windings are connected by an alternating magnetic field and work according to the principle of electromagnetic induction. Electrical transformer has made great contributions to the safety and efficiency of long-distance power distribution systems.

Electrical transformer not only undertakes power distribution work, but also undertakes the task of protecting electrical equipment. Because both step-up and step-down are completed by electrical transformer. In the process of transmitting electric energy in the power system, using it to increase the voltage is conducive to reducing power transmission losses.
