2 types of transformer
Core
Shell
What does a transformer do
Change voltage in AC current
What is the purpose of laminated soft iron core
To get maximum transfer between primary and secondary windings
More coils in secondary coil means transformer is
Step up transformer
Transformer output voltage equation
Output voltage = (secondary turns/primary turns) x input voltage
Identify input and output cables on HM ships
