Applications

Substations

Transformers in substations play a key role in high-voltage transmission. Here, step-up transformers elevate distribution voltages for efficient long-distance power transmission through transmission lines. On the other hand, step-down transformers lower transmission voltages for distribution to towns and cities through distribution lines.

Copper mines

Because of the fire and explosion risks underground, copper mines require specially designed isolated transformers. These transformers have enclosures surrounding the coil assemblies to prevent arcing from causing ignitions in hazardous mine atmospheres.

 Power plants

Within thermal and hydroelectric power plants, generators produce electricity at a voltage suitable for efficient generation, which may differ from transmission standards. Hence, station service transformers adjust the voltages to the required transmission levels before sending them out through transmission lines.

Residential distribution

Pole-mount transformers located on utility poles along streets help reduce distribution voltages even further for safe usage levels in homes. Pad-mount transformers installed above ground at housing complexes perform a similar voltage conversion function for supplying various residential loads.

Benefits of Power Transformer

1. Isolation and productivity

Transformers are incredibly useful devices that have a wide range of applications. They are especially useful in providing electrical isolation between two circuits. There is no electrical connection between the transformer's primary and secondary windings. Transformers work by transferring energy entirely through magnetic coupling, which makes them highly efficient and reliable. Additionally, transformers are relatively simple in construction, making it easy to produce and maintain electricity.

2. Power transmission and distribution

AC transformers play a critical role in the power system, which includes power generation, transmission, and distribution. Transformers make it possible to distribute electric power over large distances at a reasonable cost.

3. Stepping voltage and current up and down

Transformers are vital in power distribution and electronic systems. Reducing the high voltage in transmission at substations makes it possible for end-users to get the increased amount of current they need.

4. Efficiency in terms of costs

A transformer is a great alternative to a more expensive option for voltage level change and isolation. The traditional transformer provides a cheap and very efficient voltage level transformation and isolation method. The total cost of a transformer is not expensive.

5. Wide range of applications

All transformers work on the same concept but have different applications. They are also different in terms of power, distribution, potential, and isolation efficiency.
