Use Step Down Transformer in different ways.

Use Step Down Transformer in different ways.

In this post, you will learn the Use of Step Down Transformer in different ways.

(1) Have you known, how a Step-down transformer can be used as an Auto Transformer?

Yes, you can use a Step Down Transformer as an Auto Transformer very easily. The circuit diagram is given below. See the circuit diagram carefully and make the circuit properly. The connection of the terminal of the two winding is to be made as the circuit diagram.

As Step Up auto Transformer:

                                   

As Step Down Auto Transformer:

(2) Let's know how a Step-Down Transformer can be used as Step Up Transformer?

You can use a Step-Down Transformer as a Step Up Transformer very easily using low voltage side as the primary side and high voltage side as the secondary side. But remember that only AC supply is to be given. The voltage can be applied up to the rated voltage.

(3) How a Step Down Transformer can be used as a Current Transformer?

Use the low voltage coil of the Transformer as the primary coil and connect in series with the circuit whose current is to be measured. Connect an ammeter to the high voltage side. By calculating the ratio of the transformer you will measure current.
