Hello,
It's my first post, so, greetings to all the folks around and thank you in advance for all the responses on my threads! Unfortunately, I'm not properly educated in this area to fulfill all my ambitions, therefore, don't mind some very basics questions!
To get started ... I am wondering, hot to wire a simple transformer (say 220V to 12V) to a single phase current. I've taken one apart and found that it has no resistors inside, or anything that will limit the current. I suppose that, if we plug a simple wire into the wall plug, one end into each hole, it would short circuit and the breaker will hopefully prevent further connection. Why doesn't it happen here? Have I missed some resistors somewhere?
