TOPIC: -“Mutual induction and principle of
transformer”
Imagine two coils of wire placed close to each other. When there
is a change in the current flowing through one coil, it generates a
magnetic field around it. This changing magnetic field, in turn,
induces a voltage in the neighboring coil, even if it is not
directly connected to a power source. This phenomenon is the
essence of mutual induction.

transformer
Transformers are ubiquitous in our lives, silently working
behind the scenes to ensure the smooth functioning of various
electronic devices. From the power lines that carry electricity to
our homes to the chargers that power our smartphones,
transformers are integral to these systems.
Think of a step-up
transformer as an
elevator that takes you to a higher floor, while a step-down
transformer is like descending to a lower level. Both are
essential for maintaining the balance and efficiency of the
electrical grid.
A. Power Grids:
Transformers are the unsung heroes of power grids, enabling the
efficient transmission of electricity across vast distances.
Substations, adorned with transformers, serve as nodal points in
the grid, facilitating the transformation and distribution of power
to meet the diverse needs of industries and households.
B. Electronics:
In the realm of electronics, transformers are omnipresent. Power
supplies and chargers utilize transformers to convert voltages for
the myriad devices we rely on daily. The ubiquity of
transformers in electronic circuits exemplifies their versatility
and indispensability.
D. Industrial Processes:
Industries, with their diverse and
demanding electrical
requirements, rely on
transformers for power distribution and equipment operation.
The adaptability of transformers ensures that voltage levels are
tailored to the specific needs of different industrial applications.
