Transformer Current and Power
Demonstration of voltage and current ratios, and explanation of why the primary voltage increases when loads are added to the secondary.
In my "Buck-Boost Transformers" video I use the concept of relative polarity to adjust voltages up or down by connecting primary and secondary windings in either an additive (in-phase) or subtractive (out-of-phase) orientations. ua-cam.com/video/aOtSnJo6PfM/v-deo.html
In my "120/240 V In-Phase or Out-of-Phase" video I address the concept of reference and how that can appear to flip one waveform relative to another. ua-cam.com/video/nOSYHUxHxG8/v-deo.html
In my "Dual Voltage Windings - Part 1" video I briefly mention polarity as relates to the H1/H2/H3/H4 and X1/X2/X3/X4 labels on dual-voltage transformer leads. ua-cam.com/video/qIzkRWVWavQ/v-deo.html

    I don't know if you read through comment, but thank you so much for educating me on how to interpret and wire transformers for 480v and 240v on the primary. I have an industrial machine at home I bought from my job and it was wired to 480v 3 phase and now that I finally have installed the machines to run at 240v 3 phase I realized I need to rewire the transformer to step down from 240v 3 phase to 120v single phase instead of 480v 3 phase to 120v single phase.

    THIS GUY IS GREAT. I just went to school about the operating theory of the buck boost transformer i am about to install on my inverter heat pump which blew up its main board that is rated on the AC supply at 208-230VAC and where my FPL power from the utility is typically 247 and has gone up to 262. Now at least i fully understand what it is doing in wiring diagram I. By the way i am working with an Acme Electric T113074. The only thing that yet troubles me is that the wire coming into the AC supply south of the AC fuse box (60A fuses) where the AC is rated at 50A max (typically 20A or even less due to 1/3HP scroll compressor motor), well the wires are 8 gauge or so, and the wires in the buck boost appear to be only 12 gauge, which say they are good for 20A and not 50A. Anybody know why the buck boost that is correctly specd out and purchased for 50A max are so thin? Also, what is the best way to connect fat low gauge wire, 8 or 10 gauge, to 12 or 14 gauge wire? Should i solder or use wire nuts? I don't necessary expect a reply to my post so in the meantime let me thnak Dave Gorodn for a great video!!!

    @williamhoughton2945 16 днів тому

    Dave, I had to watch your video several times to be sure I was hearing right. Your explanation of the secondary is good but the primary is backward. To decrease the secondary voltage, you have to add turns to the primary. Tapping the primary will raise the secondary voltage. If you tapped the primary down to the same number of turns there are in the secondary, it would be a one-to-one transformer and the output would be 120v. Your formula says it all: to decrease EsubS you have to increase NsuP.

    In the delta transformer, only A to B windings are directly connected to the line voltage of 480 volts. The B to c and A to B windings are connected to the line voltage of 480 volts through a line winding in series with it.
