Transformer: transfers electrical energy between two or more circuits through electromagnetic
induction. It is used to increase or decrease the alternating voltages in electric power applications.
Rectifier: converts alternating current or AC (reverses direction) to direct current or DC (flows in only
one direction or rectification). Detectors of radio signals serve as rectifiers. In gas heating systems, flame
rectification is used to detect the presence of flame.
