Usage and Benefits of the Isolation Transformer

Image
In general. Transformers are electromagnetic devices that transform electric energy from primary to secondary winding. With the use of transformer core magnetic field, the energy is transformed in equal or approximately equal power frequency. The isolation transformers are also used in the same way as other transformers, but in this, they provide the galvanic isolation in the electrical system. The galvanic isolation is the principle of isolating different sections of electrical systems to prevent current flow. These isolation transformers can work as step-up or step-down transformers and as equal values i.e. 1:1 ratio in primary and secondary voltage. Usage of Isolation Transformers: Isolation transformers are widely used in applications or systems where the electrical noise needs to be suppressed such as devices like computers, medical devices and laboratory instruments. They are highly found in devices that have sensitive circuits and cannot withstand alternatin
