Power Transformers and their Importance?

Spending a single day without electricity is not
possible in todays time. We are completely
dependent on electricity for the functioning of
industrial machinery to household appliances.
However, the electric current and voltage vary,
especially in commercial and industrial
appliances. To ensure the safety of these
appliances, a constant and stable flow of
electricity is required. That is why transformers
are placed at power stations and substations to
transfer electric current between two electric
circuits with the help of electromagnetic
induction. For devices that operate on
high-voltage inputs, a power transformer is
required. Unlike the distribution transformer,
the power transformer helps in stepping up and
down the voltage. It also allows the transmission
to occur despite the two different voltage
levels. Before we learn the importance of power
transformers through this blog, lets know what a
power transformer is.

What is a power transformer?

• A power transformer is a crucial part of an
  electrical system that helps transfer electrical
  energy from one or multiple circuits to another.
  It utilizes electromagnetic induction to alter
  the voltage level of electrical energy. It
  operates on alternating current supply. A power
  transformer comprises two or more coils, a
  magnetic material like an iron, a tank, a
  mechanical device also known as a tap changer,
  bushings which are made of an insulating
  material, a cooling system, and circuit breakers
  and fuses.
• According to varied applications, a few more
  additional components can be added to the device.
  As no rotation occurs in a power transformer, it
  is called a static device.

Importance of Power Transformers

• Efficiently transfers the electrical energy
   Power Transformers are highly important for an
  electrical power system. They are helpful in the
  efficient and safe transmission of power, which
  helps reduce power loss. Especially when the
  power transformers transfer energy over long
  distances, some energy gets lost in the process.
  But with the help of a power transformer, it is
  possible to reduce this loss. It is done by
  regulating the voltage of the electrical energy
  for efficient transmission.
• Suitable for multiple industrial and commercial
  applications  Power Transformers greatly help in
  industrial and commercial applications. It is
  useful for power generation, transmission, and
  distribution to long distances. Power
  transformers are also helpful in stepping down
  the voltage to the required level in commercial
  buildings to function elevators, HVAC systems,
  and other equipment. It is used in oil and gas
  production, extraction, and refining. Power
  transformers are best suited for solar farms,
  windmills, and other renewable energy systems.
  They are also used in different industrial plants.

Protects electrical system from damage  It is
also crucial for power transformers. Power
transformers comprise multiple protective
components like circuit breakers and fuses. So,
they help prevent damage to the electrical system
and heavy-duty machinery. It is also one of the
major reasons why they are used in industries
with heavy machinery.
