A transformer, whose operation depends on the electromagnetic
induction, is a static piece of apparatus of which electrical power in one circuit is transferred to electric power of the same frequency in another circuit. It can raise or lower the voltage in a circuit but with corresponding decrease or increase in current. Having taken note of the physical details of the transformer primary and secondary, perform the following steps:
STEP 2: Secondary voltage- By connect the oscilloscope probes across
the secondary terminals of the transformer I got waveform from the display and secondary voltage.
Figure 01: Secondary voltage waveform.
STEP 3: My given transformer VA rating is 9.
750mA. Output voltage 12V.
Current
is
VA rating= voltage times current.
12v times 0.750A=9VA
Figure 02: Transformer VA rating
STEP 4: By using multi-meter primary voltage is 238.5 V and secondary voltage is 14.73 V.
Figure 03 and 04: Primary and secondary voltage.
STEP 5: By the way of wave from displays, phase relationship of the
primary and secondary voltage is 180o.
Figure 05: Phase relationship
STEP 6: Full secondary voltage is 29.48 V. Halve of the centre-tapped secondary voltage is 14.73 V. So sum of two halves is equal full voltage.
Figure 6: Full secondary voltage.
In contrasts, in practical transformer secondary voltage will not be same. There must be some different. Same like happened with our giver transformer. It secondary voltage was 12V, but in measurement I found
14.73 V. Therefore, the transformer is very high quality, the changes are quite low value but still there.
