TRANSFORMERS THE SINGLE PHASE TRANSFORMER OBJECTIVE To study the voltage and current ratios of a transformer and learn about exciting currents, volt-ampere capacity and short-circuit currents. DISCUSSION Transformers are arguably the most universally applied pieces of electrical equipment. As such, they range in size from miniature units weighing ounces to huge units weighing tons. All transformers, however, exhibit the same basic properties. When mutual induction is permitted between two coils or windings, a change in current flowing through one coil induces a voltage upon th
