help me about my problem plzzz.. HOW TO DETERMINE WHAT IS THE PRIMARY WINDING AND SECONDARY WINDING OF THE DEVICE OR TRANSFORMER.. AND HOW CAN I KNOW WHERE THE PRIMARY AND SECONDARY WINDING CAN FOUND..
Jeraldson25,help me about my problem plzzz.. HOW TO DETERMINE WHAT IS THE PRIMARY WINDING AND SECONDARY WINDING OF THE DEVICE OR TRANSFORMER.. AND HOW CAN I KNOW WHERE THE PRIMARY AND SECONDARY WINDING CAN FOUND..
And so the question now has its very own thread.Jeraldson25,
What you have done is considered "hijacking" a topic, by injecting a query into an existing topic that is not a reply to the original poster's question. This can cause a great deal of confusion, and is therefore strongly discouraged.
The thread, split from another thread is 11 years old.The side the has the applied voltage is usually the primary (mostly the left side) and the output is the secondary (mostly the right side)
What happens when you rotate the transformer 180 degrees ?The side the has the applied voltage is usually the primary (mostly the left side) and the output is the secondary (mostly the right side)
This may be generally considered true mostly on schematics. But there are a number of problems with this description. Some transformers are in sealed bodies where you can't see one coil from the other. Most often - BUT NOT ALWAYS - when you have a sealed transformer the primary side is typically - BUT NOT ALWAYS - black and white wires. Secondary wires may be different colors or they may be (for instance) two red wires. I have a sealed transformer with black and white as the primary input side, two red wires that are 10:1 (120 VAC to 12 VAC) and two yellow wires which are 50:1 (120 VAC to 2.4 VAC). I don't remember what that came out of - but - - - .The side the has the applied voltage is usually the primary (mostly the left side) and the output is the secondary (mostly the right side)
