The input and output voltage of a transformer are 11000 V and 220 V, find the input current if output is 1650A in transformer.


1 Answer


Given, 

V1 = 1100V

V2 = 220 V

I2 = 1650 A

I1 = ? ? 

Accordinf to the principle of transformer, 

I1 * V1 = I2 * V2 

OR , I1 * 1100 = 1650 * 220 

OR, I1 = 330A

 

A transformer consists of two electrically isolated coils and operates on Faraday's principal of “mutual induction”, in which an EMF is induced in the transformers secondary coil by the magnetic flux generated by the voltages and currents flowing in the primary coil winding.
