Have you ever wondered why the voltage of a transformer output with no load is higher than rated? Or maybe you've never noticed the relationship between the voltage level and the load. You're not alone. In this tutorial, we talk about transformers that are loaded versus open-circuited and why transformer secondary voltage can seem too high. The rated output or secondary voltage of a transformer is rated at a certain load and if you've got a different load, the output will be different. In our video about power supplies, we discuss about regulation and this is one of the reasons you need it. Check out the written tutorial on the CircuitBread website - [ Ссылка ]
