Electricity is an indispensable part of our daily life, and high voltage transformer is one of the key equipment for power transmission and distribution. However, most people may not understand the high-voltage transformer, this article will take you to understand the structure and role of the high-voltage transformer, so that you have a more in-depth understanding of this important power equipment.

First, the structure of the high-voltage transformer

High-voltage transformer is mainly composed of two parts: iron core and winding. The core is an important part of the transformer, made of silicon steel sheet stacked and played the role of magnetic conductivity. Winding is the circuit part of the transformer, by the insulated copper or aluminum wire winding and become. According to the need, the high-voltage transformer can also be equipped with different accessories, such as heat sinks, insulating bushings, pressure relief devices, etc., to ensure the normal operation and safety of the transformer.

Second, the role of high-voltage transformer

The main role of high voltage transformer is to raise or lower the voltage in the power system. By raising the voltage, the power can be transmitted to a longer distance, reducing line losses and improving the economy of power transmission. And when the power reaches its destination, the voltage is then lowered by a step-down transformer to meet the power needs of different devices.

In addition, the high-voltage transformer also has the following roles:

Isolation: High-voltage transformers can effectively isolate high-voltage and low-voltage circuits to prevent users or equipment from being harmed by electric shock.

Protection: high-voltage transformer can adjust the output voltage according to the need to avoid over-voltage or under-voltage damage to the equipment.

Regulation: high-voltage transformer can be adjusted through the input voltage, to achieve a stable output voltage regulation, to ensure the normal operation of equipment.

Measurement: high-voltage transformer can also be used as a tool for power measurement, for power users and power supply departments to provide accurate power measurement data.

Third, the application of high-voltage transformer

High-voltage transformers are widely used in the power industry and industrial fields. In the electric power industry, high-voltage transformers are mainly used for power transmission, power distribution, power protection and so on. In the industrial field, high-voltage transformers are mainly used in large motor drive, electric arc furnace, electrified railroad and other fields. In addition, high-voltage transformers have a wide range of applications in aerospace, JUN affairs and other fields.

In short, high-voltage transformer as an indispensable part of the power system, its unique structure and a variety of roles make it play an important role in daily life and industrial production. With the continuous progress of science and technology and industrial development, high-voltage transformer applications will continue to expand, the future development prospects.
