What is transformer?

Question

Accepted Answer

A transformer is an electrical device that transfers electrical energy between two or more circuits through electromagnetic induction.

Transformers are used to increase or decrease the voltage of an alternating current (AC) electrical supply.
They consist of two or more coils of wire, known as windings, that are wound around a core made of magnetic material.
The primary winding receives electrical energy from the input circuit and produces a magnetic field.
This magnetic field induces a voltage in the secondary winding, which is connected to the output circuit.
Transformers are commonly used in power distribution systems, electrical appliances, and electronic devices.
Step-up transformers increase the voltage, while step-down transformers decrease the voltage.
Examples of transformers include power transformers, distribution transformers, and instrument transformers.
