TRANSFORMER TYPES TransformersSummaryThe important information covered in this chapter is summarized below.Transformer Types SummaryDistribution transformers are generally used in power distribution andtransmission systems.Power transformers are used in electronic circuits and come in many differenttypes and applications.Control transformers are generally used in circuits that require constant voltageor constant current with a low power or volt-amp rating.Auto transformers are generally used in low power applications where a variablevoltage is required.Isolation transformers are normally low power transformers used to isolate noisefrom or to ground electronic circuits.Instrument potential and instrument current transformers are used for operationof instruments such as ammeters, voltmeters, watt meters, and relays used forvarious protective purposes.ES-13 Page 20 Rev. 0
