Transformers are employed for varied purposes, but most often they are used to transform the high or low level of voltage in power generation stations. It reduces the voltage of conventional power circuits to operate step-up or step-down current that is received from electric generators. The transformers also distribute the power over long distances. Generally, these transformers come in a varied range of sizes and shape that suit different needs. One can choose the equipment based on designs, specifications, and installation procedures. Buying a transformer can be a challenge for those who do not homework before their purchase.
Different types of transformers include Distribution & Power Transformers, Combined CT-VT Metering Units, Combined CT-VT Metering Cubicles, Servo Voltage Stabilizers, Current Transformers, Voltage Transformers and Electrical Panel.
Learn the standard information for any transformer :
- Preferred KVA (Kilovoltampere) rating.
- Select voltage ratio and rating in accordance with available equipment requirements.
- Know If the Voltage Taps consist of a transformer, which is used for maximum no-load voltage conditions
- Think about the input frequency of the voltage in the transformer. The frequency should be 50 HZ in India
- Determine the output power which requires a specific current for proper operation
- Check overload capacity
- Ensure the short circuit performance and noise level of the transformer
If you are looking for a transformer for your specific need such as residential or commercial purposes, look for a reputable transformer manufacturer. Macroplast Transformers is a leading company that manufactures and supplies a wide range of transformers and serves clients.
