Transformer Industry Background
 

Electrical transformer is a static device installed to transform electrical energy across the primary and secondary circuits with mutual induction being the operating principle. The basic function includes transfer of power from one circuit to another with negligible variation across the potential difference or the power frequency. The technology can further be segmented based on step-up and step-down units. The prime attribute of these systems is to either increase the potential difference across two adjoining circuits or vice-versa.
