1) The transformer is a device used for converting a low alternating voltage to a high
alternating voltage or vice-versa.

2) A Transformer based on the Principle of mutual induction according to this principle, the
amount of magnetic flux linked with a coil changing, an e.m.f is induced in the neighboring
coil.

3) A transformer is an electrical device which is used for changing the A.C. voltages. A
transformer is most widely used device in both low and high current circuit. As such
transformers are built in an amazing strength of sizes.

4) In electronic, measurement and control circuits, transformer size may be so small that it
weight only a few tens of grams where as in high voltage power circuits, it may weight
hundred of tones.
When an altering e.m.f. is supplied to the primary coil p1p2, an alternating current starts
falling in it. The altering current in the primary produces a changing magnetic flux, which
induces altering voltage in the primary as well as in the secondary. In a good-transformer,
whole of the magnetic flux linked with primary is also linked with the secondary, and then
the induced e.m.f. induced in each turn of the secondary is equal to that induced in each turn
of the primary. Thus if Ep and Es be the instantaneous values of the e.m.f.’s induced in the
primary and the secondary and Np and Ns are the no. of turns of the primary secondary coils
of the transformer and

dф / dt = rate of change of flux in each turnoff the coil at this instant, we have

Ep = -Np dф/dt _______________ (1) and

Es = -Ns dф/dt _______________ (2)


Since the above relations are true at every instant, so by dividing 2 by 1, we get

Es / Ep = - Ns / Np ______________ (3)

As Ep is the instantaneous value of back e.m.f induced in the primary coil p1, so the
instantaneous current in primary coil is

due to the difference (E – Ep ) in the instantaneous values of


the applied and back

e.m.f. further if Rp is the resistance o, p1p2 coil,

then the instantaneous current Ip in the primary coil is given by

Ip = E – Ep / Rp
E – Ep = Ip Rp
Thus back e.m.f = input e.m.f

Hence equation 3 can be written as

Es / Ep = Es / E
= output e.m.f / input e.m.f

= Ns / Np = K
Where K is constant, called turn on transformation ratio.

• Take thick iron rod and cover it with a thick paper and wind a large number of turns of
thin Cu wire on thick paper (say 60). This constitutes primary coil of the transformer.

• Cover the primary coil with a sheet of paper and wound relatively smaller number of
turns (say 20) of thick copper wire on it. This constitutes the secondary coil. It is a step
down transformer.

• Connect p1, p2 to A.C main and measure the input voltage and current using A.C
voltmeter and ammeter respectively.

• Similarly, measure the output voltage and current through s1and s2.

• Now connect s1and s2to A.C main and again measure voltage and current through
primary and secondary coil of step up transformer.

• Repeat all steps for other self made transformers by changing number of turns in
primary and secondary coil.
