Transformer
The transformer changes the system voltage from one level to another using two
mutually coupled coils on a magnetic core as shown in Figure 5.1. The two coils
are electrically isolated—not connected by wires. The power transfer from one coil
to the other takes place via the alternating magnetic ux in the core that links both
coils. The core is made of magnetic steel that has high permeability (low reluctance)
to the magnetic ux. The magnetic steel is also known as electrical steel for its use in
electrical machines. It is basically mild steel with a small percentage made of alloys
that greatly improves the magnetic permeabil ...
